Budding thespian solicitors, who have been waiting for a chance to prove it is not just barristers who can be star performers on their feet, may have their chance to shine this summer.

The Tricycle Theatre in north London is again opening its doors to lawyers (solicitors, barristers, judges and others) for this year’s production of Judgment at Nuremberg, a fictional account of the trial of four judges who assisted the Nazi regime.

If the plot sounds a tad harrowing, it is in keeping with previous productions, which have included 12 angry men, Inherit the wind [pictured] and Are you now or have you ever been?. Lawyers wishing to tread the Tricycle’s boards should contact zoe@tricycle.co.uk.
