12 Angry Men Opens Today at Engeman Theater

Good morning, Northport. Here's a look at what you should know about today in town.

Twelve Angry Men Opens at John W. Engeman Theater
The defense and the prosecution have rested. The jury is filing into the jury room to decide if a young man is guilty or innocent of murdering his own father. What begins as an open and shut case of murder soon becomes a mini-drama exploring each juror's prejudices and preconceptions about the trial, the accused and each other. Based on Reginald Rose's 1954 teleplay, 12 Angry Men opens tonight at the John W. Engeman Theater in Northport. Click here for tickets.
