The famous attorney, who defended unpopular causes in the 1920’s,
is riveting and even more relevant today. He fought for improved race relations and what could be taught in school in high-profile in cases. Clarence’s compassion and wit come to life in this one-man play featuring actor Pete Piane.

Darrow reviews much of America’s legal history with salty humor, courtroom gusto, and human relish. His private life and many contemporary events, including labor conditions, are woven into this story of a man who accepted unpopular cases and defended unpopular causes.
