10-12 Babylon Citizens Council on the Arts and
The Second Chance Players Present:
12 Angry Jurors
The story takes place in a jury room where the jurors must decide the fate of a young man accused of murdering his father.  All the evidence points toward him, or does it? One juror stands alone in his belief the young man might be not guilty and sets out to prove that there is "reasonable doubt.  Of course tempers grow short, arguments get heated, and most of the jurors just want to go home.  You will be on the edge of your seat waiting to see if juror #8 can change their minds.  The show is directed by longtime community theater personality, Charles L. Bandler.

Long Island’s finest songwriters performing in a casual “in-the-round” setting that places the musicians right among the audience members.

Run for Your Wife

The story of London cab driver John Smith, with two wives, two lives and a very precise schedule for juggling them both. With one wife at home in Streatham and another at home in Wimbledon, and with occupants of the flat upstairs at the latter location.  Trouble brews when Smith is mugged and ends up in hospital, where both of his addresses surface, causing both the Streatham and Wimbledon police to investigate. Having upset his schedule, Smith becomes hopelessly entangled in his attempts with his lazy layabout neighbor upstairs in Wimbledon, to explain himself to his wives and two suspicious police officers.

Gercharel Players, Inc. Inc. Present:
All My Sons

All My Sons is a 1947 play by Arthur Miller and is based upon a true story, which Miller's then mother-in-law pointed out in an Ohio newspaper. The story described how a child informed on her father who had sold faulty parts to the U.S. military during World War II. Asked in a TV interview what about the story had inspired him, Arthur Miller said, "I was fascinated by the idea that a child could have this kind of moral courage." When asked why he changed the gender of the character for his play, Miller said, "At the time I didn't understand women very well."
