Bøker av Rodney Ackland

Condemned as a "libel on the British people" when it was first produced in 1951, "Absolute Hell" is set in a decaying West End drinking club at the end of the Second World War. The 1995 production at the Royal National Theatre starred Judi Dench and was directed by Anthony Page.

A new edition following the first London production in 80 years of this work by a renowned West End playwright.

Two plays -- The Dark River and After October -- by a master of the British stage. In The Dark River, set in the late 1930s, the flamboyant characters are cocooned in a Thames backwater, ignoring the turbulent events of a politically unstable Europe. After October is Ackland's most personal, autobiographical play.
