CARSON CITY — Fans of the movie “Twelve Angry Men” will delight in Proscenium Players’ stage-play version of it, “Twelve Angry Jurors.”

Director Heidi Hampton has chosen to balance male and female roles and set the stage play, to be performed at the Silver State Charter School’s Performing Arts Theatre, in a time period when women were first allowed to sit on a jury.

At 63, singer-songwriter Rick Millward is ramping up a career when most artists are retiring, or heading out for nostalgia tours.

This ambition was sparked by an experiment in social media, using the Reverbnation.com site to introduce his recordings to a wider audience. He joined Reverbnation a little over a year ago, as an experiment, entering the Nashville Americana “chart” at No. 85. He will be appearing at Comma Coffee in Carson City July 8.
