The show is based on the notorious "Scottsboro" case in the 1930's, in which 9 African-American men were unjustly accused of a terrible crime.
Their shocking and inspiring story - told though a mix of innovative staging and piercing new songs - demands to be shared. So gather 'round... and join THE SCOTTSBORO BOYS on their remarkable journey.
