Waterford High School Presents Twelve Angry Men and Twelve Angry Women
Waterford High School proudly presents the third WATERFORDrama production of the season, two thought-provoking courtroom dramas, TWELVE ANGRY MEN and TWELVE ANGRY WOMEN by Reginald Rose.
 
These shows will take place at the Waterford High School Auditorium from January 29th to February 1st at 7:30 p.m. TWELVE ANGRY WOMEN can be seen on Wednesday and Friday and TWELVE ANGRY MEN will be performed on Thursday and Saturday.  
 
The defense and the prosecution have rested and the jurors are filing into the jury room to decide if a young Latino is guilty or innocent of murdering his father. What begins as an open and shut case of murder soon becomes a mini-drama highlighting each of the jurors' prejudices and preconceptions about the trial, the accused, and each other. Based on the 1954 teleplay by Reginald Rose, and critically acclaimed in the 1957 movie starring Henry Fonda, TWELVE ANGRY MEN takes place entirely in the jury room and the audience will be seated close to the action, actually on the stage with the actors.
 
Reserved seating tickets for TWELVE ANGRY MEN and/or TWELVE ANGRY WOMEN may be purchased in the front lobby of Waterford High School on Mondays through Fridays between 7:30 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. starting January 20th or they can be reserved by calling (860) 437-6956 x. 7407.  Tickets are $12.00 for adults and $7.00 for students if purchased in advance or $15 for adults and $10 for students if purchased at the door.
 
There is also an Advanced Ticket Special Rate for people who want to see both casts - $18 for adults and $10 for students will get you a ticket to TWELVE ANGRY MEN and TWELVE ANGRY WOMEN.  Please note that there are a limited number of tickets for all shows.
 
For more information please contact Waterford High School at (860) 437-6956.
