Auditions for 12 Incompetent Jurors by Ian McWethy are currently full.
About the Show:
A man is accused of abducting half a dozen cats. The evidence is overwhelming, the case is open-and-shut, and the defendant is clearly guilty. Enter the jury: a chaotic collection of oddballs that includes an improv-happy foreman who can only do one character (“a kooky Cockney lady”), a dim PR guy, a perpetually bickering couple, and one very confused individual who isn’t entirely sure how jury duty works.
The only person standing between the “Cat Burglar” and a guilty verdict? Juror #8, a wannabe lawyer who insists on defending the indefensible. The only person with any sanity left? Juror #3, who may or may not lose their mind before deliberations are done.
Will justice be served, or will the cats have the last laugh? 12 Incompetent Jurors is a fast, funny, and fur-filled parody of 12 Angry Men that proves even the justice system isn’t safe from comedy.
