puteri [66]

The Crucible is a tragedy play by Arthur Miller on which a movie was directed. The difference between the scenes in movies and plays is created to show the element of drama.

<h3>Who is Tituba?</h3>

Tituba is one of the black characters of the story that is an enslaved girl of Kalina nationality and is accused of practicing witchcraft during trials. In the play, it is seen that Tituba is threatened to confess her involvement in witchcraft.
