AUDITIONS - 12 Angry Jurors (aka 12 Angry Men)

[muffyjo]

Auditions are only a week away on Monday and Tuesday, August 6-7.

Theatre at First's 4th season continues with this dramatic piece about the American justice system and the individual stories we bring with us in our deliberations of innocence.

"This I have always thought is a remarkable thing about democracy. 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. This is one of the reasons why we are strong. We should not make it a personal thing." (Juror 11)

Of course, "a personal thing" is exactly what it becomes for these
twelve ordinary men and women in this uncomfortable room as
they negotiate between compassion, justice, and vengeance, sifting
through doubtful reasons to find reasonable doubts.

Join us, and them, for Theatre@First's production
of Twelve Angry Jurors (aka 12 Angry Men). Performances will be
November 9-11 and 15-17.

A wide range of ages and ethnicities is preferred.

Please bring a prepared dramatic monologue no more than 2 minutes long. There will also be cold readings from the play with other actors.
