THE STINGTHE HAMILTON LAWYER’S SHOW 2024By David RogersAdapted from the screenplay by David WardDirected by Steven Schipper C.M, O.M.
THE LAWYERS ARE BACK! The Hamilton Lawyers’ Show is returning to the Aquarius stage. This time, Hamilton’s lawyer-actors (actor-lawyers?) are gearing up to present The Sting, based on the classic 1973 film, starring Paul Newman & Robert Redford. All of the excitement, intrigue and suspense of the big con in depression-era Chicago will come to life for Hamilton audiences in this production under the direction of Steven Schipper, one of Canada’s most celebrated professional directors.
The ‘Lawyers’ Show’ was invented by Hamilton’s lawyers 40 years ago when they staged another classic, Twelve Angry Men, by Reginald Rose. That production inspired an international phenomenon of copycat lawyer shows that have generated millions of dollars for charity throughout North America & Europe.
