The Shawshank Redemption – NOW ON SALE

We are excited to announce that tickets are now on sale for the acclaimed stage production of the multi academy award nominated hit movie. The Bill Kenwright Ltd stage production will be hitting the Forum Theatre Billingham stage from 17 – 21 March 2026.

Fear will hold you prisoner. Hope can set you free. Despite protests of his innocence, Andy Dufresne is handed a double life sentence for the brutal murders of his wife and her lover. Incarcerated in 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 start to 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…

Based on Stephen King’s 1982 novella, this thrilling stage production examines friendship and hope behind the claustrophobic bars of a maximum-security facility. The 1994 feature film was nominated for seven Academy Awards.

BASED ON THE SHORT NOVEL BY STEPHEN KING
