You're the Jury: This Interactive Courtroom Show at the Manuel Artime Theater Puts You in the Deliberation Room

The Jury Experience, created by Fever, is a 60-minute interactive courtroom simulation where the audience becomes the jury. Professional actors bring a dramatized trial to life — witness testimonies, forensic evidence, cross-examinations — and the room hears the evidence, weighs the perspectives, and reaches a verdict together. Because the audience decides, no two performances are the same.

In Miami, The Jury Experience is hosted at the Manuel Artime Theater, with dates running through the end of the year. Tickets are available at thejuryexperience.com.

A new Ipsos survey commissioned by Fever found that 62% of Americans say they would be willing to serve on a jury if summoned — but most have no idea what actually happens when they show up. The most common factor that would make people feel more positive about jury service: understanding what to expect and how the court system works (42%). The Jury Experience taps into that curiosity without turning it into a civics lesson. It's designed to entertain, not explain.

"Jury duty is one of the few civic responsibilities most of us will be asked to take on, yet many people have no idea what happens inside a courtroom," said Isabella Szpigiel, Head of The Jury Experience at Fever. "This data shows Americans are curious about the drama of a trial — especially hearing the evidence and reaching a verdict together. The Jury Experience puts audiences right at the heart of that, not as a lesson in legal procedure, but as a gripping night out."

The Jury Experience: Manuel Artime Theater, 900 SW 1st St, Miami. Dates through December 2026. Tickets at thejuryexperience.com.
