Synopsis A Puerto Rican
teenager is accused of murdering his father in the early 1950s.
Twelve middle-class men, all white, retire to a small, hot, soon to
be smoky jury room to determine his fate. The initial vote: 11 to 1
in favor of guilt and execution. One man's "Not guilty"
leads to intense examinations by the others of their innermost
beliefs and feelings, along with a scathing indictment of the
judicial process
Notes Though author Rose
wrote a theatrical version of Twelve Angry Men in 1960, this is the first
Broadway production of the show
Reginald Rose's Twelve Angry Men
was originally broadcast as a teleplay for CBS television's Studio
One in 1954. Robert Cummings originated the role of Juror #8 and
was supported by, among others, Walter Abel, Edward Arnold, John
Beal, Paul Hartman and Franchot Tone
The now classic 1957 film, with a
screenplay reworked by Mr Rose, was directed by Sidney Lumet, his
first film project, and completed in 17 days. In juror number order,
the cast included: Martin Balsam, John Fiedler, Lee J Cobb, E G
Marshall, Jack Klugman, Edward Binns, Jack Warden, Henry Fonda,
Joseph Sweeney, Ed Begley, George Voskovec and Robert Webber
