Bill Kenwright presents a new stage production of the classic film, The Shawshank Redemption 21 years after it was first released.

Based on the short story by Stephen King, adapted by Owen O'Neill and Dave Johns.

Despite protests of innocence, Andy Dufresne is handed a double life sentence for the brutal murder of his wife and her lover... Incarcerated at the notorious Shawshank facility, he quickly learns that no one can survive alone. Andy strikes up an unlikely friendship with the prison fixer Red, and things take a slight turn for the better. However, when Warden Stammas decides to bully Andy into subservience and exploit his talents for accountancy, a desperate plan is quietly hatched. Widely considered the number one all-time movie, Stephen King’s classic story takes to the stage in a new production which examines desperation, injustice, friendship and hope behind the claustrophobic bars of a maximum security penitentiary.
