Act III Q: What happens in the courtroom between Mary and Abigail and how/why does this occur?
Consider in your response: How do people respond to Abigail and her accusations in the courtroom? Why does
she have so much power over the other girls if she is approximately their age? Why does she have so much
power over the men in charge of the court if she is a mere young girl? Why does she have so much power over
the town of Salem even though she is only one young member of society?
