"You! You've led a democracy to murder a man for speaking freely! Is what you've done! Are you aware of that? Gods!" -Phaedo.
Lovers of Philosophy know Plato most likely wrote Dialogues so people could engage with these arguments in an entertaining way.
That was over 2 millennia ago. Time to dust them off for today's kids. "THINK of the CHILDREN!" -Meletus.
Kill Socrates is a roller coaster ride through one of history's most famous minds, ending in one of history's most infamous deaths. At turns hilarious and heartbreaking, Socrates Must Die.
"It's an absolutely beautiful piece. Absolute gorgeous." Don Bluth, producer of Kill Socrates at the "DBFR" Theatre in Phoenix, animated film director of Secret of NIMH, American Tale, Land Before Time.
"Ladies and gentlemen of the court. Socrates would like to say a few words. I know that most of you want to kill Socrates. And we're going to kill Socrates. But remember. A god did say he was the wisest man, so let's all be polite and pretend to listen to him. Thank you."
