Step into the courtroom and decide the fate of Leonard Vole in Agatha Christie’s thrilling whodunit, Witness for the Prosecution.
For its 70th anniversary, the South Bend Civic Theatre, the oldest continuously operating community theatre in the region, stages an immersive, site-specific production in the neighboring South Bend Scottish Rite building. This historic venue features a striking two-story horseshoe gallery reminiscent of a mid-century British courtroom. As shocking betrayals and twisting testimonies rock the courtroom, audiences will be on the edge of their seats trying to uncover the truth.
