There are some questions listed here that could work -- or be adapted to your ideas. The first thing, though, is do make decisions about what you'll be writing about first; then formulate your question.

Scroll down for questions; questions 3 and 4 or some adaptation of those two might work the best.

Do you think the Crucible is an accurate portrayal of the actual trials? Why or why not?

The answer to this question could be the basis for your thesis.
