Joe Jackson in “12 Angry Jurors”
“...My path to this play was by no means direct. I set out two summers ago to find a show that would challenge our students creatively, but one that also reflected our school’s mission and core values. With a pandemic raging and racial tensions at a peak, I struggled to find the right show... But I still searched throughout the year, reading many scripts, trying to find the ‘right’ one for this fall. Then, by a stroke of luck, I came across the title while conducting a search on a licensing company’s website. Just by seeing the title, I was flooded with vivid memories of the movie, and knew immediately that I needed to read it as soon as possible!”
