Brilliant…a colorful, picturesque and absorbing exciting essay in dramatic Americana…” —NY Post.
Step back in time to the heated debates of the Scopes Monkey Trial in an intimate theatrical production of Inherit the Wind. Experience the clash of ideas as two of the greatest lawyers of the time argue the case for and against teaching evolution in the classroom. With a captivating and thought-provoking script, this production will leave you questioning what you truly believe. Don't miss your chance to witness this timeless story unfold in an up-close and personal setting.
“It’s easy to label Inherit the Wind as a museum piece about a century-old courtroom drama. But our headlines show that what’s unfolding on stage is as charged and relevant as the news from Florida’s schools - schools across the country, in fact. Our goal is to create an electrifying experience for our audiences, and this collaboration with VTC allows that to happen." - Troy Heard, Director.
