Synopsis
The Exonerated
Published by Faber & Faber
The Exonerated, a play by Jensen and Jessica Blank, is a series of intersecting monologues culled from their 40 interviews with former death-row inmates who were eventually proven innocent and released
Like the 88 Americans who were wrongfully convicted in capital crimes and have been exonerated since 1973, the play's 12 subjects just like in a jury, were freed through an appeals process that left them imprisoned on death row for as long as 20 years
A moving and thought-provoking play for our times
