12 Angry Jurors is a timeless drama of one juror standing alone against their peers, until gradually others find their opinions challenged and their perceptions of truth altered. Twelve ordinary people convene in a jury room to decide the fate of a young man on trial for murder. At first, the decision seems simple and clear. But one voice rises above the rest to challenge the group’s assumptions and prejudices and asks them to look closer at the facts. This classic drama by Reginald Rose, 12 Angry Jurors is particularly relevant today, asking the characters and the audience to consider a fundamental question: Why do you believe what you believe?
