Davis Senior High School is proud to present our fall theatrical production Twelve Angry Jurors, an inclusive casting of Reginald Rose's classic play Twelve Angry Men. In this timeless drama, one man is dead and the life of another is at stake. Tempers flare as twelve members of a jury deliberate the facts of the case, and personal prejudice threatens to upend the quest for justice.

Recorded by Davis Media Access in the Richard Brunelle Performance Hall on October 19, 2023.
