    Inherit the Wind

    Inherit the Wind

    Presented by Prescott Fine Arts Association at Prescott Center for the Arts

    February 24-March 5, 2011

    One of the most outstanding dramas of its time, this fictionalized account has its genesis in the events of the famous 1925 Scopes Monkey Trial, in which 24 year-old Dayton High School mathematics teacher, sports coach, and substitute science instructor, John T. Scopes was convicted of violating state law by teaching Darwin's theory of evolution in a state-funded school. The play's fictional characters of Matthew Harrison Brady, Henry Drummond, and Bertram Cates correspond to the historical figures of lawyers, William Jennings Bryan and Clarence Darrow, and teacher John Scopes. Not necessarily following the actual facts gave the playwrights, and now gives the audience an opportunity to look at the historical event with new insight.
