A WEAPON MOST UNUSUAL!
"The jury is a wonderfully chosen cast of actors with expressive, captivating faces that work well in extreme close-ups. . .One man raps, "I gave
her the benefit of the doubt. She's guilty, there's no way out." A woman counters, "Hold on, big guy, not so fast. Maybe he drove her to kill his
ass." In between stanzas, the men rap, "Stupid bitch," while the woman shake their heads and say, "Don't let no man treat you like that.

One cannot help but marvel at the perfect coordination as the jurors speak their dialogue in sync with the hip-hop song underscoring their words.
The beat pushes its way into your subconscious, causing many a serious-faced patron to tap a foot while visibly swaying shoulders to the rhythm."
Adrienne Cea, "Dinner With Felons", OffOffOnLine, New York City

"This is a very funny production.  The eight actors who are performing live bring so much to the audience and they are complimented by the
gifted actors who are on the video recording.  One of the things that I really enjoyed about the production was that the audience was exposed to
the inner thoughts of the jury members.  I was in stitches to hear some of the inner thoughts of the jury in the production because I could
identify."          Nicole U. Hopkins, The Black Star News
In the role of "Alicia Post, Housewife, Juror"
"Hankins turns a jaundiced eye and ear to the inside of the Jury Room.  We
watch them bicker, argue, even physically fight to persuade one another.  
Most troubling is that many of them made up their minds before the trial
began!  So that as the trial proceeds one is actually thinking about the
defendant's clothes, another about going on vacation, and a third is worrying
about getting back to work."                  Ernece B. Kelley, New York Beacon
