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

Junior Achievement Stock Market Challenge

JA Stock Market Challenge is a national competition that simulates stock trading over a simulated 60-day period. El Camino was able to take 4 teams to the Northern California Challenge this year, and all our teams placed in the top 17 spots. One of our teams, comprised of Luis Solorio, Yojhan Gomez, and Emanuel Huentes, placed 2nd overall and earned a spot at the National Competition at Boston University in Massachusetts at the beginning of June. Great work to all who competed, and congratulations to Luis, Yujhan, and Emanuel!
