As i read act II, I came to the conclusion that it's theme is corruptness. As the play continues, everyone is accusing one another to get back at one. This finger pointing and vengeance reminds me of my neighborhood. Gang members are always on the revengeful side. When one of their "crew" die, killed by opposing gangs, they want to get back, when they do, its the same story on the other side. This turns to the vengeance cycle and never ends with death after death. The crucible has really shown me the evil side of people, this evil side the people of Salem call devilwork and witchcraft.
