Murder in the First

Tickets and Information

Come join us for a touching and trenchant drama about the friendship which develops between a prisoner on trial for first degree murder and the young public defender who is assigned to defend him. Set in the 1940's the play is inspired by conflicting accounts of the events surrounding the Trial of Alcatraz, the case which many consider to have signaled the end of Alcatraz and the beginning of the prison reform in America. Directed by Linda Grey, this show features a professional cast including Ted Nealey, Joseph Fuqua, Larry Hagman and Dana Elear.
Larry Hagman makes a special appearance as Judge Clawson through June 10 (matinee). Dana Elear plays the role from June 10 (evening) through June 25.
Student, senior and group discounts available.
