12 ANGRY MEN
One of the greatest legal plays written, TWELVE ANGRY MEN, will open at Island ETC (East-End Theatre Company) on Friday, September 19, 2025. TWELVE ANGRY MEN was originally a made-for-television movie by Reginald Rose. This courtroom procedure was highly rated and evolved for the stage by Sherman L. Sergel.
A 19-year-old is on trial for the murder of his father. After 6 days of listening to the court proceedings, the jury is sent to the jury room. 12 total strangers must convene to determine his fate. The room is hot and some tempers even hotter as they struggle to determine guilt beyond a ‘reasonable doubt’.
This fast-paced drama reveals some of the dilemmas the jurors must face. You may think you know the outcome of this trial, but how this jury comes to the outcome is candid and thought-provoking. “Our jury is phenomenal,” states the director, Kim Mytelka. “ This group of actors continue to find more depth in this highly-celebrated play.”
Performances for TWELVE ANGRY MEN are September 19 – October 4. Performances are held on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings at 8:00 pm. There are two 2:30 Sunday matinees on September 21 and 28. All performances will be held at ETC, 2317 Mechanic.
This all-male cast consists of Tyler Rooney, Jadan Zamora, Justin Gonzalez, Cameron Redwine, Kyle Crawford, Parker Jensen, TJ Webb, Cameron Dunbar, Joe Stanfeld, Matt Poole, Max Bailey, Jackson Evans, Chris Monteith and Bud Kuleska.
ETC recommends this production for ages 12 and up due to subject matter. This play is written to provoke thought and opinion.
