“ANG PAG-UUSIG” (‘The Crucible’ by Arthur Miller), is a play that dramatizes how the establishment is used as a tool of the powerful few, exerting its magnitude on the many, preventing any sense of community and collectivity from being formed. The witch hunt that occurred in Ang Pag-uusig serves as an allegory, not only to the McCarthryism in the US, but also to the current political and social state of the country.
