The jury's in with Saybrook Stage Company's '12 Angry Men'

The whole hush-hush business of what exactly goes on in a jury room remains fascinating - the debates and outright battles as they decide a person's fate.

All that drama has never been more memorably recreated than in "12 Angry Men" by Reginald Rose. The Saybrook Stage Company is performing that play tonight through Sunday at the Katharine Hepburn Cultural Arts Center.

The question the "12 Angry" jurors consider is whether a young man murdered his father. One lone holdout forces the others to consider their near-unanimous decision.

The cast in this community theater production includes: Victoria Blake, Mary Corigliano, Jim Hile, Terri Corigliano, Demaris Rio, Michael Cartwright, Rose Lamoureux, Michael McDermott, Stephen Azzaro, Devin Carney, Adam Smith, and Jason Naylor.
