The Museum is thrilled to partner with Nomad Theater Company to host Order in the Court this September!

This production will feature a powerful lineup of original short plays exploring justice, power, and the human condition, with a splash of humor. Directed by Lori Adams, Order in the Court will include winning 10-minute play submissions from across the nation as well as a play by local writer John D. Poling. Based on true McLean County history, his play will anchor the lineup.
