Courtroom Drama
November 14, 2003
This summer in England, a courtroom investigation had the nation on the edge of its seat. The five-week Hutton inquiry looked into the suicide of government scientist David Kelly, who had been fingered as a source for the BBC's report which alleged that the British government had "sexed up" intelligence on Iraqi weapons. Now, Londoners are again watching the proceedings unfold…but this time the drama is scripted and on a stage. Director Nicholas Kent talks to Brooke about the play "Justifying War," scripted from actual courtroom transcripts.
