Unknown Story
Storyboard Text
- Abigail Williams"A strikingly beautiful girl, an orphan, with an endless capacity for dissembling."There's an indication that her name is not "entirely white" in town. She is a leader among the other young girls of Salem.
- Reverend Parris:"In his middle 40's. In history, he cut a villainous path...there is very little good to be said about him. He believed he was being persecuted wherever he went." Parris is selfish and paranoid about his position in the town. It is his daughter, Betty who we first meet in Act I of the play.
- Betty Parris and Ruth Putnam (lying down because they're afflicted). Susana Walcott, Mary Warren and Mercy Lewis are all young girls who live in Salem. They are the servants and daughters of the major families in the play. The girls were caught dancing in the woods and conjuring spirits.
- The Girls of Salem
- Ann (Goody) Putnam: daughter Ruth is afflicted. "I have laid seven babies unbaptized in the earth." She is looking to make meaning from the deaths of her stillborn babies. "She is a twisted soul of forty-five, a death ridden woman, haunted by dreams." She is vindictive and jealous.
- Thomas Putnam: Married to Ann Putnam. "He is a man with many grievances." He is a deeply embittered man and vindictive. Was in a land feud with the Nurse family and it was his daughter, Ruth, who pointed to Rebecca as her attacker. (We are not on team Putnam.)
- Tituba: She's Parris' slave (there to help take care of Betty Parris), originally from Barbados. She took the girls to the woods in order to conjure spirits. "Her slave sense has warned her that, as always, trouble in this house eventually lands on her back."
