Olly’s Prison

In an ordinary London flat, a desperate man is driven to commit an unspeakable act. Can he ever be free from the retribution of society, or will the legacy of the deed haunt him for all his life? Bond’s magnificent play, originally written for television, is a scorching investigation of the forces of repression, and the quest for freedom, which bind our lives.

The American premiere of Olly’s Prison, by Edward Bond, is directed by Robert Woodruff for the American Repertory Theatre.
