"He doesn't stand a chance," mutters the guard as the 12 jurors are taken into the bleak jury room. It looks like an open-and-shut case—until one of the jurors begins opening the others' eyes to the facts. "This is a remarkable thing about democracy," says the foreign-born juror, "that we are notified by mail to come down to this place—and decide on the guilt or innocence of a man; of a man we have not known before. We have nothing to gain or lose by our verdict. We should not make it a personal thing." But personal it does become, with each juror revealing his own character as the various testimonies are re-examined, the murder is re-enacted and a new murder threat is born before their eyes! Tempers get short, arguments grow heated, and the jurors become 12 angry men. The jurors' final verdict and how they reach it—in tense scenes that will electrify your and keep you on the edge of your seat—add up to a fine, mature piece of dramatic literature, an experience you'll never forget.</div></div></div><div style="font-family: verdana, geneva; text-align: center;"><br></div><div style="font-family: verdana, geneva; text-align: center;"><b style=""><font size="3" style=""><font face="Times New Roman" style="">Blank Canvas Theatre provides professional quality productions, placing emphasis on entertainment at affordable prices.</font></font></b></div><div style="font-family: verdana, geneva; text-align: center;"><br></div><div style="font-family: verdana, geneva;"><b style=""><font size="3" style=""><font face="Times New Roman" style=""><br style=""></font></font></b></div><div style="font-family: verdana, geneva;"></div> </span></body></html>
