The Trial of The catonsville Nine brings to life the dramatic historical trial in 1968 of two Catholic priests and seven fellow Catholic activists who committed an act of civil disobedience in protest of the War in Vietnam. This moral act of civil dissent galvanized the national protest movement. The play presents a moral imperative to commit civil disobedience when national hubris and global corporate interests act against the welfare of the nation and the well-being of the international community. This acclaimed production returns to the Ivy Substation in Culver City for four performances August 27-30 (Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 8 pm, Sunday at 2 pm) before embarking on a tour of the East Coast and Australia. The Sunday matinee performance will be followed by a Gala reception hosted by Academy Award-winning actor Tim Robbins and United Talent Agency.
