I am researching plays to produce and direct with my theatre company this fall, and I am interested in finding courtroom /jury dramas, like "12 Angry Men,"" Caine Mutiny," "To Kill a Mockingbird," and other titles. The shows can be serious and tense dramas or a comedic look at a ridiculous court case; I would entertain either one, but I am looking for a cast size between 15 and 25.
     Anybody producing courtrroom dramas or comedies out there? I would be interested to hear of your successful projects or any suggested titles. I did "12 Angry Men" back in 1998, and enjoyed the conflicts and characters put under this kind of theatrical microscope.
Thanks in advance,
Martin

I remember doing one many. many, many years ago that I remember as being pretty darn good: "The Night of January 15th." -- You might want to check it out.

"Love Suicide at Schofield Barracks"

"Witness For the Prosecution" is a good, solid Agatha Christie mystery/thriller that isn't done very often due to its large cast.
