Inherit The Wind
- Preview Date: March 19, 2007 Opening Date: April 12, 2007
In this fictionalized retelling of the famous 1925 "Monkey Trial," science teacher John Scopes was tried and convicted for teaching Darwin's theory of evolution, violating a Tennessee law that forbade teaching any theory that conflicted with the Biblical conception of Divine Creation.
Even without its ample contemporary parallels, Doug Hughes' dynamic production would be crackling entertainment, enlivened by the vigorous verbal sparring of two great lions of the stage, Brian Dennehy and Christopher Plummer. - Variety
