A stage musical that re-enacts the trial that pitted actor/entrepreneur Gwyenth Paltrow against a retired Utah eye doctor over a skiing accident will make its U.S. premiere in March at the Egyptian Theatre near enough where the collision and the courtroom battle took place.
Much of Martin and Karp s script pulls lines of dialogue from the trial, nearly verbatim, and when their characters recite the lines, it highlights the absurdity of the trial that turned the eyes of the world to a Park City courtroom.
