Arts Council To Present “12 Angry Jurors” Production This Weekend
February 26, 2010
The Greater Escambia Council for the Arts will present 12 Angry Jurors this weekend.
Based on the Emmy-winning 1954 teleplay “Twelve Angry Men” by Reginald Rose, the play follows a diverse group of strangers who must decide the fate of an inner-city teen on trial for the murder of his abusive father.
It looks like an open and shut case until one juror begins questioning the real facts of the case, hoping to create reasonable doubt in the minds of his fellow jurors. Tempers flare as prejudices and personal agendas become evident when the group attempts to reach consensus.
The U.S. judicial system is as much on trial as the defendant when these 12 jurors dramatically wrestle with their civic duty.
12 Angry Jurors will be presented at 7 p.m. Saturday and at 2 p.m. on Sunday at the Greater Escambia Center for the Arts located corner of Trammell Street and Nashville Avenue in Atmore. All seats are $8.
The play is not recommended for children. There is no vulgarity or profanity, but the acting and emotions are intense. Tickets are available at The Barn Owl at 102 West Church Street in Atmore or online at gecarts.com.
