Culled from interviews, letters, transcripts, case files and the public record, The Exonerated tells the gripping and true stories of six wrongfully convicted survivors of death row in their own words. Moving between first-person monologues and scenes set in courtrooms and prisons, the six interwoven stories paint a picture of an American justice system gone horribly wrong – and of six brave souls who persevered to survive it. Named by Time Magazine as the Best Play of 2002.
