Wolverhampton Grand Theatre announces Jason Merrells - one of TV's most popular actors, to lead the cast in the upcoming production of TWELVE ANGRY MEN. The jurors prepare to give their verdict in theatres around the UK, following a record-breaking run in London's Garrick Theatre, where the production was hailed by The Sunday Telegraph as 'The classiest and most intelligent show in the West End'.

Coventry's Belgrade Theatre will welcome Olivier Award Winner, Tony Award Winner, Variety Award Winner, and Academy Award and Golden Globe nominee Tom Conti in the new U.K tour of Twelve Angry Men from Mon 9 - Sat 14 Feb. The acclaimed touring production will make its Midlands premiere in Coventry this February following a record-breaking run at the Garrick Theatre in the West End. Tom Conti will be reprising his role as Juror number 8, a role made famous by Henry Fonda in the 1957 Academy award-nominated film of the same name.

As TWELVE ANGRY MEN get set to give their verdict across the UK, seven of the West End cast will re-join the acclaimed production following its record-breaking run at London's Garrick Theatre.
