Hollywood star Patrick Duffy will head the cast of a brand-new touring version of Reginald Rose’s Twelve Angry Men which stops of at The Alexandra Theatre next month.

Best known from the 1957 film starring Henry Fonda, the gripping courtroom drama tells of one juror’s battle to save the life of a man on trial for the murder of his father. 

Initially a lone voice in the wilderness, Juror Eight is faced with the monumental challenge of persuading his eleven fellow jurors to spare the defendant’s life - a task made all the more difficult by the other men’s prejudices and preconceptions about the trial. 

The production also stars Gray O’Brien (Coronation Street), Tristan Gemmill (Casualty), Coronation Street), Michael Greco (EastEnders), Ben Nealon (Soldier Soldier) and Gary Webster (Minder).

Twelve Angry Men shows at The Alexandra Birmingham from Monday 30 October to Saturday 4 November. For further information and tickets, visit: atgtickets.com
