Story for Martin Luther on Trial
"Here I stand, I can do no other." – Martin Luther
A trial in the afterlife, and the prosecutor…is the Devil. In the new original play Martin Luther on Trial, Luther’s beloved wife Katie defends him as witnesses including Adolf Hitler, Sigmund Freud, Rabbi Josel, St. Paul, Martin Luther King, Jr. and Pope Francis take the stand. Even as 2017 marks 500 years since Luther ignited the Protestant Revolt against Rome, he continues to spark intense debate. You be the judge in this witty, provocative exploration of one of history’s most explosive personalities and the religious and political controversies he unleashed.

Critics’ Reviews for Martin Luther on Trial
"Tremendously Dramatic"
DC Theatre Scene
"...Joins the canon of great theatrical works about major figures in religion... But this play goes them one better: Martin Luther on Trial is quite the divine comedy and it’s funny as hell."
