Kunstler Theatre & Performing Arts


Jeffrey Sweet’s Kunstler makes European premiere, bringing to life the radical legal renegade

Jeffrey Sweet’s play introduces Kunstler, the legendary legal renegade, to European audiences this spring at The White Bear Theatre. Kunstler brings to life two people coping with disillusion while showing how the law, courage and idealism can make a difference, following the lawyer as he is challenged by a young black law student.
Kunstler vividly brings to life the Chicago Seven conspiracy trial and the Central Park Five, using the lawyer’s own memoirs to get a sense of his thought process, philosophy and language. Sweet also draws on scenes from public record, including the trial in Chicago and Kunstler’s speeches. Interweaving real moments and imagined scenes, Kunstler brilliantly conveys the lawyer’s remarkable life and work – the Kunstler family have even fed back the reality of the production and Kunstler’s voice.
