Scottsboro Boys makes its official debut at the Guthrie Theater tonight and runs through September 25.

When you have a second, give a listen to Euan Kerr's piece on the Scottsboro Boys, which opens this weekend at the Guthrie Theater. Euan does a great job of capturing the story that inspired the musical, and how writer John Kander feels the story relates to the racial division he sees in our nation today.
