The story:The powerful drama of the greatest courtroom clash of the century. A science teacher in a small town in middle America defies the law when he teaches the theory of evolution to his students. His case prompts a renowned fundamentalist politician/lawyer Mathew Harrison Brady to offer his services as the prosecuting attorney. To combat this, Brady's idealistic rival, Henry Drummond, arrives in town to defend the teacher and to inadvertently ignite a media frenzy.
The events of the play are heavily inspired by the famous Scopes "Monkey" trial of 1925. However, the story and characters have been fictionalized.
