In 1215, the wealthy and powerful barons of Great Britain rebelled against grumpy, intransigent King John, who had earned their ill will through incessant wars, attempted conquests, increased taxation, and abuses of power. This verse play revisits that insurrection and the disputes behind the creation and signing of the Magna Carta, the document considered by many to be the precursor of the U.S. Constitution.

Painting death-row meals on china plates may seem like a quirky artistic endeavor. But Professor’s made quite a name for herself doing just that from the safety of her conservative Midwestern college. As someone who struggles with gender identity, she’s fascinated by this final decision in a life otherwise devoid of options. But now, pressured by her tenure committee, she has her first face-to-face with the next inmate to die — Texas prisoner Trevor Monroe. But Trevor wants a stay of execution — not a final meal — putting Professor uncomfortably front and center in a very public social media frenzy and setting up a series of life-altering events for the artist, the prison warden, and the man about to die. Inspired in part by true events, including the botched 2014 Oklahoma execution of inmate Clayton D. Lockett. Meet the Artists: https://deanproductionstheatre.com/captives-episode/ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dptc/support
