Theater of Law

Theater of Law is a collaborative project between FOLCS and Theater of War Productions. The program presents a dramatic reading from Aeschylus’ Eumenides, an ancient Greek tragedy about the birth of trial by jury in the western world. The reading acts as a catalyst for discussion about the role of the public in seeking justice.
