Twelve Angry Men in London

Twelve Angry Men – The ultimate courtroom drama

This play has wowed audiences in cinemas and theatres across the world. It has been transformed into huge radio and TV hits. And now it’s on the West End stage, probably one of the most popular ever courtroom dramas with a beautifully simple proposition examined in infinitely intelligent and compelling detail. It’s called Twelve Angry Men. And it’s a classic of our time.

Twelve Angry Men - The story

A 12 man jury is tasked with establishing the guilt or innocence of a young layabout, who is accused of murdering his own father. The key is ‘reasonable doubt’, without which a conviction is impossible. At first the blame seems clear. All but one of the jury members is dead certain the boy is as guilty as sin. But one lone dissenter disagrees and, gradually, the rest of the jurors realise all is not what it seems.

This remarkable piece of work explores the intricacies and challenges of coming to a consensus, especially when the jury consists of such different personalities, from such disparate backgrounds.

In fact it is thought to be so socially relevant that in 2007, it was chosen by the US Library of Congress for preservation by the United States National Film Registry because of its considerable cultural, historical and aesthetic significance. In other words, it’s a museum piece of the very best order, just as good today as it was in the 1950s, with a storyline that’s equally relevant to today’s murder cases.

Copied by many, loved by millions

A remarkable number of TV series have used 12 Angry Men as inspiration for an episode. Hancock’s Half Hour, The Dead Zone, The Odd Couple, King of the Hill, Matlock, Monk, Robot Chicken, Charmed and The Simpsons are just a few, and the list goes on… and on. There’s no better homage, illustrating just how influential Reginald Rose’s unforgettable story has been over the past five decades.

Excellent show

Couldn't fault any part of the acting and direction - perfect delivery. We really liked Tom Conti as the lead (we did notice the difference in the age of the character between play and film but it wasn't noteworthy for anything but for being different). The only reason I haven't put 5 stars for everything was my partner thought the lead's costume wasn't of the right period - hardly an issue. We thought it was one of the best shows on stage.

An acting masterclass

This show is as good as, if not better than the film. Which I didn't think would be possible. The only draw back is that the theatre is right in between Leicester square & covent garden so it's nightmare to get away from after the performance. Small price to pay after a great night out.

Great Cast - Little Seats - Big Show

C10 Dress Circle perfect view, but even the restricted views had a good view of this show as the main action is centre stage. Tom Conti is gentle and modestly mocking in the role, but it is the rest of the cast that captivate. The irony is translated as comedy, which balances some very intense scenes. Glad they extended the run and that I was able to see this show. It's knock knee seats in the Dress Circle, but I think we had the best view.

Theatre at its best

The acting of this play is first class. There are no weak links. It requires concentration as we follow the arguments of the story. It is not really suitable for young people as there is not too much action. The direction is excellent as, although the action takes place in one room, it is never static due to well plotted character movement. If you are a theatre goer you will enjoy this.

12 Angry Men is one of my all time favourite movies so I was a bit hesitant to see this play as I thought it probably couldn't live up to the film. I wouldn't say it was as good as the film but it was gripping and I am glad I saw it. The only thing that I found a bit irksome was the fake American accents. I am originally from America and they grated a bit. Otherwise, great show.

Classic lesson in persuasion and negotiation

Simple set to the point of starkness. American by definition. A classic depiction of the power of a lone honest voice.

Olney girls

Play was very good with super acting throughout. Well worth seeing. Theatre is a bit dated with some rather uncomfortable , squeaky seats but nothing that can't be suffered for a couple of hours. The sound could have been better perhaps this was because we were near the back in the stalls. A better position would have been at the front of the circle. Martin Shaw was great but what else would expect!!

Emotional experience

Possibly the best stage play I have ever seen. Very powerful and emotional. Martin Shaw has to be one of this country's best actors.

Reviewed on 27 February 2014 by

Very entertaining and absorbing. A serious subject interjected with humour but the underling moral remains throughout. Anyone who has been a juror will immediately empathise with the story to one degree or other! Well worth a visit and great acting

Disappointing

Largely disappointed in this play, the over exaggerated accents gave the whole performance an air of amateur dramatics and the ill advised little quips which had sections of the audience laughing heartily only served to reverse any progress toward a tense atmosphere.

Simplistic plot

Although set 60 years ago, only one of the 12 jurors smoked. They all walked around the room too much which does not happen in real life. The did not interrupt each other as happens in real jury room. The only juror who sweated, kept his jacket on. The acoustics were bad and it was difficult to hear in row T. Badly directed & came across as total fiction.

Awesome Acting for an American Classic

The Garrick Theatre is a great venue to watch a play, we were in the front row of the dress circle and had a brilliant view of the stage. The story, the acting and the set were all superb. Martin Shaw is a fantastic actor as are the rest of the cast but a special mention to the American actors Robert Vaughan and Jeff Fahey who added a degree of realism in what is, after all, an American drama. First class, well done.

Ruth's review

Wonderful acting and very clever stage design with the rotating table giving the impression of changing perceptions. It also allowed for different actors to come to the fore. I think it was probably a very good depiction of how jurors might reach decisions and emphasised how important it is to review evidence and overcome stereotypical views and personal prejudices. I'm now going to get the film out !

More Than Expected

We loved the show. How candid! When it begins, if you've not seen the film, you're `not quite sure' but the storyline really holds you. Who next? What next? We'd have loved to have met Robert Vaughan and Martin Shaw as we had questions about the play and how they felt about certain things during the era of the play. The theatre was warm (without being stuffy), the effects were spot on, comfortable seats and £1 for theatre binoculars if you need them. The half time, was perfectly timed and quite emotional at the end.

Great story line and characters that kept close to the original play and movie. This is definitely a must see for anyone who loves live theatre or felt that 12 Angry Men the film staring Henry Fonda is one of the best movies ever. Effects were subtle throughout and the lighting helped set the scene and the tone of the play. do not miss this play.
