Over the course of a steamy and tense afternoon, twelve jurors deliberate the fate of a 19-year-old boy standing trial for killing his father. A seemingly open-and-shut case quickly turns complicated when one of the jurors begins to ask questions, igniting passion and hidden prejudices among the group.
Auditions will be held Sunday, August 2, and Monday, August 3 from 7:00-9:00 PM at Buck Creek Players, 11150 Southeastern Ave, Indianapolis, IN 46259.
Auditions will consist of readings from the script. Scripts are widely available online, at Half Price Books, and at the library.
