Mount Vernon – The Department of Theatre at Cornell College is proud to announce its production of Machinal, by Sophie Treadwell, directed by Janeve West. Premiering on Broadway in 1928 and inspired by the 1927 murder trial and subsequent execution of Ruth Snyder, Machinal is considered one of the greatest examples of Expressionist Theatre on the American stage and remains powerfully relevant today.
