Twelve Angry Jurors
Twelve Angry Jurors is a variation on the well-known play and movie, Twelve Angry Men.
A jury has murder on their minds and a life in their hands as they decide the fate of a young delinquent accused of killing his father.
But what appears to be an open and shut case soon becomes a huge dilemma, as prejudices and preconceived ideas about the accused, the trial, and each other turn the tables every which way, until the nail-biting climax…
Witness a ‘BRILLIANT’, ‘RIVETING’, ‘TRIUMPH’ of a show.
Still acclaimed as being as relevant as ever, this production is set in Australia in 1965 and features an outstanding cast of Tasmanian talent.
The play centres on the deliberation of a jury who must decide on the fate of an outcast youth. Racism, equality and justice are reflected in these characters who subconsciously and unintentionally show their deeply rooted prejudices and staunch judgements.
This challenging ensemble work, directed by Robert Jarman, presents twelve cleverly written characters in a poignant and significant way that will connect and resonate with audiences from beginning to end.
Pepperberry Theatre Inc. are striving to be part of rebuilding a vibrant theatre scene in Hobart and provide opportunities for as many local creatives as possible, so please help support our industry and come along to see this great production.
