Overview
"Lindsey Ferrentino writes with a moral conscience second to none among her generation of playwrights." —Variety
Nick's got a story to tell you. About how a routine traffic stop turned into a conviction for murder. About how he spent the next twenty-two years on death row. About how he finally petitioned the court, seeking not an appeal, but for his execution date. And about what happened next…
Based on the extraordinary true story of Nick Yarris—and on David Sington's documentary film about him—The Fear of 13 is a gripping exploration of truth, justice, and the chasm between them.
This edition of the play, featuring an exclusive afterword by Nick Yarris, was published alongside the 2026 Broadway production and available exclusively in the U.S.
