The Morning Show - 06/19/19 - The Scottsboro Boys

This interview concerns a musical called "The Scottsboro Boys," one of the last collaborations of Kander & Ebb, best known for their shows "Cabaret" and "Chicago." The Scottsboro Boys is based on the heartbreaking true story of 9 young African-Americans who were unjustly accused of raping a white woman back in the 1930's. Kenosha Unified mounted a superb production of the show that will be taken to the International Thespian Festival. I speak with Holly Stanfield, coordinator of KUSD's music theater program, and two members of the cast: Ben Woods and Nick Daly.
