Saved by Edward Bond

"Saved" is a provocative and gritty drama that delves into the bleak and violent aspects of working-class life in 1960s London. The play confronts the audience with the disturbing indifference and cruelty among its characters, culminating in a shocking act of violence involving a baby. Through its unflinching examination of poverty, alienation, and the breakdown of family and social structures, the play presents a stark critique of the societal conditions that breed such despair and brutality, challenging the audience to reflect on the nature of salvation and the possibility of redemption amidst a seemingly inescapable cycle of degradation.
