INHERIT THE WIND is a fictionalized drama of the “Monkey Trial” of 1925, where John T. Scopes challenged a Tennessee state law by teaching Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution to his students. Tried by two famous lawyers, this case is considered one of the most controversial and important trials of the 20th century. This year marks the 150th anniversary of the publication of The Origin of Species and the 200th anniversary of Charles Darwin’s birth.
