Inherit The Wind

The famous 1925 “Monkey Trial" depicted in the screen version starring Spencer Tracy and Fredric March is being brought to life on stage this spring. This intense drama, which retells the story of a Tennessee science teacher convicted of teaching the theory of evolution in schools, is in many ways as pertinent today as it was then.

Producers have assembled an impressive cast of thirty four led by Christopher Plummer, Brian Dennehy, Denis O'Hare and Byron Jennings, and directed by Tony winner Doug Hughes (Doubt). Costumes and set are being designed by Broadway¹s busiest designer, Santo Loquasto. This is a 16-week limited engagement. Previews begin March 19, 2007 at Lyceum Theatre.
