| − | == Introduction ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | As the last woman to be hanged in Britain, Ruth Ellis achieved the notoriety she craved but maybe not in the way she had ever imagined. From her dreams of being a Hollywood star to the cold reality of the steel bars of Holloway prison, Ruth came to meet her demise.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | A tragic tale of a fragile woman betrayed by every man she met and loved. This play asks the questions that, at the time , were inconceivable - her death divided a classist nation and shook the morality of capital punishment.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Some good came from her hanging as it haunted those that allowed it and acted as a catalyst for change in the abhorrent death penalty.
