About this listen
Over the course of a steamy and tense afternoon, 12 jurors deliberate the fate of a 19-year-old boy alleged to have murdered his own father. A seemingly open and shut case turns complicated, igniting passions and hidden prejudices.
This audio also includes an interview with Reginald Rose's widow, Ellen, in which she talks about how her late husband came to write the original teleplay version of Twelve Angry Men. ©1984 Reginald Rose (P)2005 L.A. Theatre WorksListeners also enjoyed...

Critic reviews
- Audie Award Finalist, Audio Drama, 2007
- Audie Award Finalist, Audiobook Adapted from Another Medium, 2007
"This tidy portrait of clashing social attitudes in a jury room definitely creaks with age. But somehow the creaks begin to sound like soothing music, a siren song from a period of American drama when personalities were drawn in clean lines, the moral was unmistakable, and the elements of a plot clicked together like a jigsaw puzzle without a single missing piece." (The New York Times)

Ralph Elllison's Invisible Man is a monumental novel, one that can well be called an epic of modern American Negro life. It is a strange story, in which many extraordinary things happen, some of them shocking and brutal, some of them pitiful and touching—yet always with elements of comedy and irony and burlesque that appear in unexpected places. It is a book that has a great deal to say and which is destined to have a great deal said about it.

Story
The Great Gatsby is a 1925 novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Set in the Jazz Age on Long Island, near New York City, the novel depicts first-person narrator Nick Carraway's interactions with mysterious millionaire Jay Gatsby and Gatsby's obsession with reuniting with his former lover, Daisy Buchanan. The novel was inspired by a romance Fitzgerald had with socialite Ginevra King, and the riotous parties he attended on Long Island's North Shore in 1922.

Presented in a dramatized fashion, this is a great listen.

Where does Twelve Angry Men rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This dramatization ranks among the lowest of the audiobooks that I've listen to so far. I found the performances campy and the laugh track very inappropriate for the weightiness of the material.What did you like best about this story?
I think the story is terrific. I like the development of the story and the way things are gradually revealed.Would you be willing to try another one of the narrators’s performances?
Maybe individuals from the cast performance. I'm beginning to think single narrators (or duel depending in the material) are better than cast dramatizations.Great story, terrible dramatization

What did you love best about Twelve Angry Men?
I’ve been a juror and I can honestly say that this is almost completely accurate to what I experienced. I love how it is one man against the opposition while the opposition are men who are biased towards the boy. In the beginning, the men either didn’t care to debate or had something else they would rather do so they wanted to get it over with. The fact that one man cared enough to discuss the future of a young man, and fight for his innocence, is what makes me love this story.What other book might you compare Twelve Angry Men to and why?
None of the books I’ve read have come close to comparing to this story. I hate that I don’t have anything to compare but at the same time I’m glad.Which character – as performed by the narrators – was your favorite?
The entire cast was amazing and they all did a terrific job. The character I liked the most would have to be juror #8 (Jeffrey Donovan). Honestly, it’s because I loved him in Burn Notice and I love his voice.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The scene where the juror was explaining his hate towards the boy and “his kind” moved me a lot. His prejudice towards the boy stemmed from his hate of people who, essentially, lived in the slums. When he started to explain why he felt that way...everyone turned away from him. They were so disgusted by his outcry that they couldn’t even look him in the face. It made me feel the same way. Disgusted that a man could be so biased towards a boy for his upbringing. Something that he can’t control. I loved the last response that he is given. “I’ve heard enough!! Sit down, and don’t open your filthy mouth again!!!”Great story and even greater dramatization

I watched the movie many eons ago and it was great and intense as well. But this was on a par -- probably better in the way a book is almost invariably better than its movie. The voice acting in this production was really phenomenal.
I found this story as disturbing today as I did all those years ago when I first encountered it. (Remind me never to be accused of murder and place my fate in the hands of a jury of my peers!)
Highly recommended.
Intense, disturbing and dramatic. Very well acted.

Concerning the story, it's terrifying what can happen behind the jury room doors. I listened to the whole thing in one session as I couldn't stop.
Short but engrossing
