The Cast of "Twelve Angry Men" - Interview #1

This Friday is the premiere of the drama Twelve Angry Men, the first offering for 2014 from ARTS.  Here to kick off our interviews with the cast of that show is Dylan Clark. As you're about to see, he's a very funny guy (and a heck of a fine actor):

Q: In case our reader isn't familiar with it, tell us the basic story behind Twelve Angry Men.

Dylan: It's a lot like that Pauly Shore film, Jury Duty.

Q: Tell us about the character you play.

Dylan: I play Juror #8. He's the reason for most of the conflict within the story, without him the play would probably last five minutes.

Q: What's your background in theatre?

Dylan: I invented it... at least I think that was me.

Q: What's the most challenging thing about staging this show?

Dylan: Definitely the space. It's far from conventional and when you have audience on two sides you need to be very aware not to block the audience view of important parts in the show.

Q: Why would you recommend this show to our readers?

Dylan: It's a good show in an interesting space that challenges the audience to consider all sides of a story.

Q: Tell us the dates, times and place for the show.

Dylan: Jan. 31, Feb. 1, 7 and 8. It's at the old Huntington High School on 8th Street. Tickets are $15. If you can't afford it, meet me in the back parking lot. I'll sneak you in under my coat.

Thanks, Dylan!
