The production staff includes costume design by Shelby Lynn Marie Butera, scene design by James Means, and lighting and sound design by Tom Dawson. "12 Angry Jurors" is written by Sherman l. Sergel, adapted from the television show by Reginald Rose. The play is co-directed by Kristopher LaMorte and Michael Aaron Santos. The play will be performed by students from Delgado's Theatre Program. This press release was produced by the Delgado Community College Jefferson Campus. The views expressed here are the author's own.
