The play, based on the film that was adapted from Reginald Rose’s teleplay, Twelve Angry Men, begins with an 18-year-old boy from a slum who is on trial for the murder of his abusive father. A jury of 12 people is locked in the deliberation room to decide the fate of the young boy. All evidence is against the boy and a guilty verdict would send him to the electric chair. But the judgement must be unanimous. Even before they begin a discussion, it is apparent that most of the jurors are certain the boy is guilty. While they have already decided on his fate, one vote of not guilty opens a Pandora’s box and forces a review. Slowly, but surely, each member of the jury is persuaded to confront the facts at hand, opening their minds to the possibilities that exist outside their purview and see the kind of person he or she actually is. Originally produced for Aadyam, an Aditya Birla Group Initiative, this production of Twelve Angry Jurors is presented by a special amateur license arrangement with Samuel French Ltd.Directed by Nadir Khan
