Noblesville Creates is producing this original one-act play by local writer Ian Hauer that looks at the D.C. Stephenson trial through the eyes of the jurors and courtworkers, exploring the pressures and challenges they faced as they considered this historic verdict. This play is supported by the research of many contributors, including Hamilton County Historian David Heighway, and will be reviewed and workshopped by the partners listed in this project. The performance will take place in the very courtroom in which the original trial took place.
This performance will be augmented with interactive temporary exhibit elements arranged in the hallways and lobbies that audience members will pass on their way to the courtroom. These elements will include displays with supplemental historical material made by our county historian and local residents, artwork by local artists, and materials and prompts designed to allow audience members to react to and process the story.
Attendees will also have the opportunity to sign up for a tour of the Sheriff's Residence and Jail before the performance and participate in a discussion after the performance.
