This play tells the story of a jury of 12 men who are deliberating the guilt or innocence of the defendant, a Latino youth accused of killing his father.
12 Angry Men explores a variety of techniques for consensus-building, and the difficulties encountered in the process, among a group of men whose range of personalities adds intensity and conflict as a dissenting juror in the murder trial slowly manages to convince the others that the case is not as cut and dried as it appeared in court.
Set in late 1950s New York, the play was written by Reginald Rose, who also wrote the 1957 film version script, starring Henry Fonda and directed by Sidney Lumet. Other well-known actors that have appeared in other versions of 12 Angry Men are George C. Scott, who won a Golden Globe for his supporting role, and Jack Lemmon.
