The 2022 Ethics Revue: Starring the Law Club

What's better than dinner and a show? On November 15 and 16 at the Clocktower Cabaret, the Law Club presented a hilarious and heroic musical take on the Rules of Professional Conduct. This year's theme was The Ethics Revue: Guardians of the GaLAWxy. Inspired by the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the Law Club was joined on stage by members of the CBA Ethics Committee and OARC attorneys, who discussed the finer points of legal ethics and even got in on the fun. Founded in 1914, the Law Club writes and directs its own shows dedicated to ethical conduct education through song.
