Abigail and her relation’s with other characters. We all know that she had an affair with John Proctor and she tries to entice him back into this relationship.
“Give me a word, John. A soft word” from this we can see how devious she is when she tries to start this relationship up again but John turns it down “No, no, Abby. That’s done with” But Abigail does not stop we see how assertive she is trying to get her way by any means and she results to taunting him “ You can five mile to see a silly girl fly? I Know you better” She is trying to say that John only came so he could be with her. Abigail is not on good conditions with John’s wife Elizabeth we can see how Abigail debases her “she is blanking my name in the village! She is telling lies about me! She is a cold, snivelling woman, and you bend to her! Let her turn you like a”

What are Abigail’s interactions and how does she relate to other characters in the play? She is very close within her assembly of friends, but how do we know this? There a various examples of how this is true we see how she takes the lead in the court starting off things that the other girls follow. Abigail abhors Elizabeth and visa versa “She hates me uncle, she must …… and I will not work for such a woman”
That’s a quote form Abigail, her interactions with Elizabeth is very slight we can see this when she was passing through the house how she kept her head and eyes down to the floor weather she was ashamed or she did not what to look at Elizabeth.
“No, she walked into the house this afternoon; found her sittin’ in the corner like she come to visit” that was Elizabeth’s reaction on seeing Abigail in her house.

What emotions does Abigail show? She is still deeply in love with John Proctor and outwardly shows her emotions to him be asking him for a word and also by taunting him. She shows her emotions also in court when she fears her life she outburst within the court either claiming to be cold and some one is doing it of that she sees a big bird inside the courtroom and this diverts the evidence being given.
I think that the audience can relate to Abigail whether they to might feel the need to accuse someone in order to elevate themselves above others and feel a sense of power and control. They can also relate to her relations with John they too could have had an affair with someone or their partner was unfaithful to them. They can feel the same way as Abigail does.
In Conclusion I believe that the Crucible is still a relevant play today because it shows us the dangers off misjudging some ones actions and accuse them of doing some thing. And also the fact that they blame others to elevate themselves still happens today with politics and also among the nations. They can blame others for their mistakes and give them a sense of supremacy above others.
I believe that Miller rote a successful play because it shows how a community can be overturned by just one incident and result in the loss of many innocent loved ones. This is a very successful play I think because it makes us think of how our actions and words can affect the life of others.
