AnonymityI believe Anonymity is a big theme because no one in the play has a specific name. The jurors only refer to each other by number and the people in the court room don't have a name either. the juror refer to the suspect as "the boy" and the witnesses as "the old man" and "the woman".
|
justiceI also believe Justice is a major theme due to: they're in a court house and for some of the jurors, all they want is justice. Justice something that is tied in with fairness and equality.everyone should have, in 12 angry men, some of the juror want every one to have a say and want justice for the boy.

one vs. manyThe last theme that is in the play is One VS Many. This appears in the beginning when everyone votes guilty except Juror 8 who believes he is not guilty. throughout the play one by one each change their votes and at the end the only one who is left is juror 3, who also is forced to change his vote.
