A jury of twelve men must decide the fate of a young man accused of murdering his father. Initially appearing to be an open-and-shut case, the trial becomes increasingly complicated when one juror raises doubts about the evidence. As deliberations continue, the men examine conflicting accounts, challenge one another's assumptions, and confront personal prejudices that threaten to influence their verdict. The decision must be unanimous, with the accused's life hanging in the balance.

Directed by Christopher Haydon (Macbeth, Manchester Royal Exchange; The Christians, Gate Theatre; The Caretaker, Bristol Old Vic), the production brings the courtroom drama to the stage following previous West End engagements. Haydon previously served as Artistic Director of the Gate Theatre and Associate Director of the Bush Theatre.
