Highly Recommended Goodman Theatre’s thoughtful revival of "Inherit the Wind", directed by Henry Godinez, is incredibly timely. To paraphrase a baseball pundit, it was like déjà vu all over again. The play, written by Jerome Lawrence and Robert Edwin Lee, is loosely based on the famous 1925 Scopes ‘Monkey’ trial. There’s a lot of religious ranting and bigotry but the trial comes down to a battle of wits between two larger than life lawyers. The title comes from the Bible, Proverbs 11:29. For me, the mark of a good play is in the discussion on the way home. My friend Crista, who happens to be a prosecutor, and I had a great time dissecting "Inherit the Wind". 4 Spotlights
