whereas Bush killed more in Texas, with Al GOnzo's ineffectual five minutes "clemency" rubber stamp reviews, than any other governor in history since Vlad the Impaler. This important play for today tells us in the condemned innocents' own words why we must cease being a rogue nation and rejoin the community of civilized nations by outlawing capital punishment.

I first SAW this play at the Edinburgh Festival. It is immensely powerful. It gives the story, in their own words,of a number of people who have been unjustly or erroneously accused of crimes and sentenced to death in the USA, and have spent time, sometimes decades, on Death Row.

This play is very well written. The story just makes you know what people's lives are like after they are convicted of a crime that they never commited.

Truth is a very scary thing but it's something we should all know. I went into it knowing the of the horror that is present today and it was still a very touching story.

It's an amazing play and personally, I think it's better than "I AM MY OWN WIFE".

Powerful, powerful, powerful. This work is chilling and captivating. There is not a wasted syllable in it. The fact that all of the events in the play are real and the words to be spoken by the actors were in many cases actually spoken or written by the people involved makes this disturbing to say the least. If the script is this moving, I can hardly wait to see it performed.
