Courtroom drama, insults, humor and an argument that has entered its second century
See for yourself how the parental rights/government control argument entered the public consciousness during the Scopes Trial in 1925 – and how it rages on today.
“Destiny in Dayton,” a dramatization of the Scopes Trial adapted from the trial transcript and presented in the original courtroom, comes alive once again July 17, 18, 24 and 25 in Dayton, Tennessee. Come early, and maybe you can be one of the jurors who helps decide the issue – again!
Tickets for this historically accurate drama are available here. Choose the July 25 show to add Dinner with the Cast following the play, featuring a menu that features dishes popular at the time of the Trial.
Let’s all go to the Scopes Trial Play & Festivities.
The Scopes Trial Play & Festivities is supported in part by a grant from the Tennessee Arts Commission.
