"Twelve Angry Men" is one of the most anticipated productions of M.L.T.'s season. A
19-year-old man has just stood trial for the fatal stabbing of his father.

"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 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 eys. Tempers get short, aurguments grow heated, and the jurors become 12 angry men. The jurors' finAl Verdict and how they reach it--in tense scenes, will electrify you and keep you on The Edge of your seat.

"12 Angry Men" is sponsored by the Muskogee County Bar Association and The Oklahoma Arts Council. For additional information, visit www.muskogeelittletheatre.com or call 816-0688.
