In this drama, a crucible would represent the constant building action leading to the climax of the pot. Similar to the contents of a crucible, the characters seem to be constantly enduring severe trials; in this case, the witching trials. The crucible would, in my opinion, symbolize the town itself and its residents the contents. The symbolism of this suggests a theme of the townspeople going through the witching trials and coming out with a "refined" lesson. The unnecessary accusations and trials will teach a hard lesson to the people who live within the town and influence their future.
