Inquisitions - An Audio Drama - Act 3

When national security and civil liberties are at odds, fundamental rights are often undermined or violated. “Inquisitions (and Other Un-American Activities)” explores this theme through dramatic recreations of the Haymarket bombing in Chicago and other crackdowns on dissent. In Act 3, the Haymarket trial concludes as capitalist oligarchs celebrate on a surrealistic dream train. Before her interrogation ends Lucy Parsons remembers her fight for clemency and the unjust hanging of her husband and comrades. Written by Greg Guma, directed by Bill Boardman, and produced by Catalyst Theatre. Restored version.
