We did a Scopes Monkey Trial Reenactment / BBQ for the Fourth. Nat provides a good description and the script.
Nat spent hours distilling the eight day trial into a 25 page script that would hold our mildly inebriated audience's attention.
I played John T. Scopes, but Joey, as William Jennings Bryan, totally stole the show.
Interestingly, Scopes' counsel included Clarence Darrow, who had represented Leopold and Loeb.
As with last year, the BBQ included corn.
