Flight Savor Fare

Flight is proud to play a part (all puns intended) in bringing the Flat Rock Playhouse production of 12 Angry Men to the historic Henderson County Courthouse on Main Street. The recently renovated courthouse is the perfect setting for this play based on the 1954 telefilm starring Henry Fonda and Lee J. Cobb.

On “lawyers and judges night” it was obvious that many of the lawyers had not visited the courthouse since the renovation. I overheard one astonished lawyer exclaim over the new dark out window shades that replaced the unadorned plywood. Another mentioned the fine new upholstery on the chairs. All agreed the courthouse never looked this great when it was in use.

But the superb acting was the main conversation that night. Each night after the play, some of the cast will head to Flight to discuss their role with patrons.

The play quickly sold out which led to a one-week extension. Now through July 25. Click here for ticket availability and pricing/> Flat Rock Playhouse.
