However, these proceedings were not public (or even recorded) so there's no "show" there, nor was there a script where the defendants were tortured/coerced into confessing.

The production was a re-enactment of the trial, and IIPM was able to obtain testimonies from individuals directly involved in the [[Romanian revolution]] (including dissidents, politicians, revolutionaries and ordinary Romanians) and the trial of the Ceauşescus (including the general who betrayed them, the officer who captured them, and the soldier who shot them).<ref name=lastdaysiipm>{{cite web \| title=The Last Days of the Ceausescus \| website=International Institute of Political Murder \| date=18 December 2009 \| url=https://international-institute.de/en/the-last-days-of-the-ceausescus/ \| access-date=18 March 2024}}</ref> A few days before the premiere at the [[Odeon Theatre (Bucharest)\|Odeon Theatre]] in [[Bucharest]]<ref name=lastdaysiipm/> in 2010, Nicolae and Elena Ceaușescu's son-in-law Mircea Oprean (the widower of Zoe, who died in 2006), forced his way into rehearsals, saying that he and his brother-in-law [[Valentin Ceaușescu]] had registered the name "Ceauşescu" as a trademark in 2008, and it could not be used in the title.
