Twelve Angry Men
Synopsis
In a sweltering jury room, twelve men are tasked with deciding the fate of a young man accused of murder. What begins as an open-and-shut case quickly devolves into a heated debate as one juror casts a dissenting vote, forcing the others to re-examine their prejudices and the evidence at hand. This classic play explores the intricacies of justice, doubt, and the human conscience under pressure.
