June 24, 2019

If you haven’t read the Mueller report yet you will have the opportunity to have it read to you by a star-studded cast June 24.

Tribe members Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Kevin Kline will join Annette Bening, John Lithgow, Justin Long, Piper Perabo, Michael Shannon, Zachary Quinto, Sigourney Weaver and Mark Hamill to perform a live reading of passages from the Mueller report. 

Playwright, screenwriter and tribe member Robert Schenkkan’s stage adaptation of the Mueller report, “The Investigation: A Search for the Truth in Ten Acts,” will be streamed online only bipartisan site Law Works.

The stream starts at 9 p.m. EDT/ 6 p.m. PT.

Law Works is an organization catering to bipartisan voices to make sure that the public is educated on the Mueller investigation among other issues in American politics. Their goal is to share resources and stories from experts to shed light on important developments based on the rule of law, making sure that neither Congress nor the American people consider themselves above the law.

Schenkkan won a Pulitzer Prize in 1992 for “The Kentucky Cycle” and a Tony award for “All the Way” in 2014. He has also picked up Emmy nominations for his HBO limited series “The Pacific” in 2010.

Susan Disney Lord, Abigail Disney and Timothy Disney are the executive producers behind the live reading.
