Two students walked out of Staples’ production of “Twelve Angry Men.”
“I want to serve on a jury,” one said.
“I want to be a lawyer,” his friend replied.
That’s one story of the power of the legendary high school drama troupe’s production of the intense courtroom drama.
Here’s another: Earlier this week, the widow of Reginald Rose — the man who wrote the drama for television, then co-produced the movie version — bought a ticket for the Staples show. She could have seen dozens of productions of “Twelve Angry Men” over the years; she chose this one.
One more story: designer Reid Thompson, a Staples grad, served jury duty several weeks ago. That experience shows, in the set’s superb yet stark details.
