Fall Play, ‘Inherit the Wind,' Battles Complacency and Injustice Fiery speeches, deep thoughts and mind probing evidence pointed out the themo of Robbinsdale's Fall play, Inherit the Wind directed by Mr. Frank Pluf. Is the Bible truthful if it is taken word for word? This question was the base of the debated issue. When defense attorney Drummond stated as his belief, An idea is a greater monument than a cathedral , Brady, prosecuting attorney, retorted that the Bible was the word of God. The play's purpose was not to prove Darwin's evolutionary theory but to expose people's unwillingness to question old ideas. Presenting these opposing views proved a challenge to both Mr. Pluf and one of the largest casts in RHS play history. A fixed set was constructed depicting the town which eliminated the need for set changes. The town loomed in back of the court scene as if to suggest that Hillsboro itself was on trial.
