Description
Set in a decaying West End drinking club at the end of the Second World War, Absolute Hell is a drama that explores the darker aspects of human nature.
First performed in 1951, the play was initially met with controversy and criticism, with some accusing it of being a "libel on the British people". However, its impact has endured, with notable productions including a 1995 staging at the Royal National Theatre starring Judi Dench.
This powerful drama is a thought-provoking exploration of human relationships and the consequences of our actions.
