Starting tonight and for the rest of April, Supreme Court aficionados in Washington won’t have to go to the court building to watch an oral argument.
They can attend instead a performance of “Arguendo” at the Woolly Mammoth Theatre in Penn Quarter in D.C. The play’s script is drawn verbatim from a 1991 Supreme Court argument in Barnes v. Glen Theatre, a dispute over nude dancing. Local legal lights including Lisa Blatt, Walter Dellinger, Maureen Mahoney and Jeffrey Rosen will participate in post-play conversations before the audience.
