David Gilbery, CEO of the Bill Kenwright Group, said, “Twelve Angry Men remains one of the greatest courtroom dramas ever written – a true masterclass in suspense and storytelling that asks timeless questions about justice, prejudice and the courage it takes to stand alone. We are thrilled to be bringing our acclaimed production back to audiences across the UK with such a tremendous cast.”

A jury has murder on their minds and a life in their hands, as they decide the fate of a young delinquent accused of killing his father. But what appears to be an open and shut case soon becomes a huge dilemma, as prejudices and preconceived ideas about the accused, the trial, and each other turn the tables every which way, until the nail-biting climax…

The cast is led by Gray O'Brien, best known for his portrayal of Tony Gordon in Coronation Street and whose stage roles include and A Game Called Malice, Bill Ward , who is currently touring in the acclaimed stage adaptation of The Shawshank Redemption and whose TV roles include Charlie Stubbs in Coronation Street and James Barton in Emmerdale, Ricky Norwood who played Fat Boy in Eastenders, Tristan Gemmill , who starred as Dr Adam Trueman in Casualty and whose stage roles include The Bodyguard in the West End and Ben Nealon , who played Captain Jeremy Forsythe in Soldier Soldier.
