El Camino Theater Company presents:
Twelve Angry Men is a play by Reginald Rose about a jury deliberating the fate of a young man accused of murder, where one juror's initial "not guilty" vote challenges the others' biases and leads them to re-examine the evidence, preventing a rushed, unanimous guilty verdict. Originally a 1954 teleplay, it was adapted into a famous 1957 film (starring Henry Fonda and Lee J. Cobb) and later into a successful stage play, exploring themes of justice, prejudice, and civic duty. Click this link to our ticket website.
You may pay cash at the door - Students: $10 General public $12
