Based on the Stephen King novella Rita Hayworth And Shawshank Redemption, Owen O’Neill and Dave Johns’ stage adaptation of The Shawshank Redemption has come a long way since premiering at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2013.
It has evolved into a tight, emotionally punishing, and on occasion, challenging piece from Bill Kenwright Productions.
A bleak, yet bullish, exploration of friendships born of despair and mutual exploitation, The Shawshank Redemption champions hope in the face of even the most brutal adversity.
