Dead Man Walking

Piven Theatre
927 Noyes Street Evanston

Based on Sister Helen Prejean's national bestseller, Dead Man Walking tells the story of Sister Prejean's journey through our system of capital punishment. Through the lens of her role as spiritual adviser to a death row inmate, the play meditates on the deeper issues of justice and mercy and the implication that we are all involved in the human consequences of our justice system: the condemned, the bereaved, the executed, the executioner, the individual, the community.
