12 Angry Jurors at Factory Theatre

Toronto Film School's acting students will bring one of theatre's most enduring courtroom dramas to life next month, when their production of 12 Angry Jurors takes the stage at Factory Theatre for a free three-night run.

Adapted from Reginald Rose’s 1964 play, 12 Angry Men, and directed by Christel Bartelse, the 90-minute play follows twelve jurors deliberating a murder trial, as one juror urges the others to confront reasonable doubt.

“It is a tense courtroom drama that examines prejudice, justice, reasonable doubt and the dangers of groupthink within the judicial system,” said Bartelse, noting that the TFS production of 12 Angry Jurors has been adapted to allow for “a beautifully diverse cast and a dynamic mix of men and women," adding even greater depth to the production.

12 Angry Jurors, which is stage managed by Elsa Gomez-Yaniz, will take to the stage at Factory Theatre for a three-performance run as follows:

• Tuesday, March 10 at 7:30 p.m.
• Wednesday, March 11 at 7:30 p.m.
• Thursday, March 12 at 7:30 p.m.

Factory Theatre is located at 125 Bathurst St. Tickets are free and available at the door.
