Award-winning playwright -screenwriter John Logan recreates the 1924“trial of the century,” in a brilliant and compelling play. Teenagers Leopoldand Loeb kidnap and murder a 14-year-old in a sick effort to create the perfectcrime. Defense attorney Clarence Darrow reshapes the trial into a vivid andpowerful exploration of violence, vengeance and justice and unpacks the boys’complex relationship of fevered intellect, romantic passion, and distortedphilosophy.
