The Mud Theatre Project started out as a group of incarcerated men who wanted to write and perform plays. Several years later, that dream became a reality on one of Chicago's biggest stages.

WBEZ's Mike Davis takes us behind the scenes of their recent one-night-only performance of "Searching For Justice."

This segment aired on July 4, 2025.
