Twelve Angry Men tour dates, venues & tickets »

Twelve Angry Men is probably best remembered for its critically acclaimed 1957 movie version, which earned three Academy Award nominations and starred the incomparable Henry Fonda as the juror fighting for justice.

Recently, this gripping knife-edge courtroom thriller completed two successful West End seasons at London’s Garrick Theatre, featuring outstanding performances by Martin Shaw and Tom Conti.

Widely regarded as a timeless masterpiece, this production keeps audiences on the edge of their seats as they follow a jury grappling with life and death decisions while determining the fate of a young delinquent accused of patricide.

What seems like an open-and-shut case turns into a gripping dilemma, as prejudices and preconceived notions about the accused, the trial, and each other sway the verdict in unexpected ways, leading to a nail-biting climax.
