Boston Actors for The Jury Experience @ The Regent Theater

Presents himself as an ‘ordinary’ guy who can be quite chatty and charming, as you might expect from a cab driver. But this is a persona—and one that doesn’t quite ring true. When challenged, he’s quick to lose his temper. He knows he’s not the smartest person in the room but likes to think he’s got hidden depths.

Lana is glamorous and charismatic, a woman who draws attention even while silent. Lana’s image is everything to her, and her hunger for work and power can sometimes lead her to forget the right thing. Like Jack, she hides behind a persona— but as the trial progresses the front begins to fall away, revealing a softer side and vulnerability that is appealing to the jury.

The Jury’s trusted guide and voice of reason. Firm yet approachable, the Judge maintains order in a courtroom filled with strong personalities and high-stakes emotion. They act as the bridge between the audience and the trial, ensuring every decision the Jury makes feels meaningful and fair.

Top of her class, Ms. De Santos was determined to make a difference in the world. She’s over-worked and under-paid, but she can put up with this when the case is meaningful. As the case develops, she becomes sympathetic to Lana. Ms. De Santos is a rule-follower and confident in her abilities — though prone to getting frustrated when she faces the unexpected.

Mr. Gosford would prefer to keep his head down, having made a career representing clients under the table in well-paid deals. When his old friend Jack called him up last minute, he couldn’t say no—but as a last-minute substitute, Mr. Gosford feels flustered and under-prepared. But he’s good at thinking on his feet, and this works in his favor, helping him to gain confidence as the trial progresses.
