The Accused - The Psychology of a Murder Trial

Live music, original film, dancing, drama and psychological research: This is no ordinary Jury Duty!

Thurdsay 9th, Friday 10th, and Saturday 11th February, from 7 - 10pm.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury. Join us for a trip back to the 1950s, and explore a turning-point in British legal history. This immersive science-theatre event combines the best creative and research talent Goldsmiths has to offer - with a healthy dose of 50s nostalgia!

Based on transcripts and court records of a high-profile 1950s murder trial, The Accused: The Psychology of a Murder Trial invites you to play the role of juror as we present a dramatisation of the crime, the case, and the testimony presented in court. Throughout the event, let the live music, drama, and dancing - devised, choreographed and performed by Goldsmiths students - immerse you in the sounds and style of the 1950s.

The event also includes two large-scale psychological research experiments, on which the researchers in the Forensic Psychology Unit will feed back results both throughout the night, and to all attendees after the event. It promises to be an entertaining and informative night, blending the arts and science.

Brought to you by Goldsmiths' award winning* Forensic Psychology Unit in collaboration with the Acting & Filmmaking Society and the Musical Theatre Society.

*The death of Jane Doe: The Psychology of a murder investigation - Winner of the CorpComms Magazine award for best communications by a public sector organisation (2016).

This event is proudly supported by the Goldsmiths Annual Fund.

We went to the first event - "The death of Jane Doe: The Psychology of a murder investigation", and it was fantastic. People threw themselves into the role of crime scene investigators. It was dark, realistic and super atmospheric.

Well worth booking!
