When
a teenager from the wrong side of the tracks
goes on trial for murder, the twelve members of this
jury must overcome their own prejudices and assumptions
to reach a consensus on his fate. Reginald Rose's riveting
drama is usually performed as Twelve
Angry Men, but Rose also wrote this little-known
version that features an all-female jury.
Refreshments and snacks will
be available in the lobby.
Donations gladly accepted.
WIT is a 501(c)3 non-profit.
