Saved by Edward Bond

***JEFF RECOMMENDED***

Saved explores the dehumanizing industrial environment and the moral emptiness of the working-class world of South London in the 60's and the beastliness and brutality that are the result. The first production of Saved in 1965 was instrumental in the abolition of theater censorship in the UK. A young man, Len, imbeds himself in a situation that seems hopeless. He moves into the house of a young woman who has rejected him. He lives there with her parents and is surrounded by the violence of South London as young people plod through there lives with no sense of consciousness, responsibility or acceptance of reality.
