Bingo puts Shakespeare himself on stage in a critical account of the writer and Stratford landowner’s final days.

All three plays deal with the origins of the tensions of the modern world. Also included is Stone, a one-act parable of oppression.

Edward Bond is “a great playwright — many, particularly in continental Europe, would say the greatest living English playwright” (Independent)
