Twelve Angry Men, in which jurors deliberate over the fate of a young man accused of patricide, was extended multiple times during its limited run at the Roundabout. Starring Tom Aldredge, Philip Bosco, Larry Bryggman, Peter Friedman and others, it opened at the American Airlines Theatre on October 28th, 2004 and closed on May 15th, 2005.

The tour of Twelve Angry Men will feature its original Broadway design team, including Allen Moyer (sets), Michael Krass (costumes), Paul Palazzo (lights) and Brian Ronan (sound).
