Theatricum Botanicum's staging of Arthur Miller's The Crucible will close Oct. 4, after an extended run in Los Angeles. Positive press and sold-out houses had prompted an extension of the drama, which opened Aug. 2. It was originally slated to run to Aug. 29. The Los Angeles Times put the production on its "Critic's Choice" list and other media coverage has been equally praiseworthy.
The open-air Theatricum Botanicum is located at 1419 N. Topanga Canyon Blvd. Call (310) 455-3723.
Other works by Miller include Death of a Salesman and Mr. Peters' Connections.
