Tickets on Sale Now for 12 Angry Men
|
September 17-20 and 24-26: 12 Angry Men It is 1957, and twelve men have been led into a jury room to decide the verdict in the case of a young man accused of killing his father and who faces the death penalty if found guilty. They gather around a long table to begin discussions about the case. After a preliminary vote, all but one of the jurors presume he is guilty. Because they must come to a unanimous decision, debates begin. Most of the men are upset and very vocal about the dissenting vote. They heatedly discuss the known facts of the case, and little by little, the personalities, opinions, and biases of each juror become evident. A gripping story that questions ideas of justice, bias, and how our lives shape our beliefs. General: $20 Seniors/Students/Military: $15 |
