Island Theatre's Inherit the Wind is a traveling production opening October 2, 2008 and touring for three weekends through the branches of the Kitsap Regional libraries. It concludes October 28, 2008 at Bainbridge Performing Arts.

A high school teacher is jailed for teaching Darwin's famous book, Origin of the Species, and two of the most famous lawyers in the country are brought in to represent the opposing sides, making this case the trial-of-the-century. Deemed "one of the truly great American dramas" of the 20th century, this exciting and absorbing play based on the famous Scopes trial is as relevant today as it was fifty years ago.

"The portrait it draws of an explosive episode in American culture…remains as fresh as it ever was." — New York Times

"A tidal wave of a drama…" — NY World-Telegram & Sun
