TRIAL REENACTMENT SERIES

 
 

 

Landmark Center’s Trial Re-enactment Series is a theatre program designed to bring to life many of the trials and court decisions that were made in Landmark Center when it was the Federal Courts Building.  Noted Twin Cities judges, legal practitioners and academics often trade robes for costumes to bring the courts to life.

Past performances have included the following personalities or stories:

The Rise and Fall of W. B. Foshay-
Evelyn Frechette
-girlfriend of John Dillinger
Volney Davis, Barker-Karpis Gang “henchman”
Alvin “Creepy” Karpis, Barker-Karpis Gang
The Lewis and Clark Papers
Kid Cann

The reenactment performances open to the public and due to their popularity always require a reservation.  A post-performance presentation and reception with the cast usually follows the show.  Click on this link to view the 2010 performance of “The Life and Trials of Kid Cann.”
