London Globe Theatre – The Prisoner – 1950's – Alec Guinness
An original theatre programme for The Prisoner at the Globe Theatre, London, in the 1950s. Alec Guinness stars as the Cardinal, with Noel Willman as his interrogator, plus John Gill, Colin Douglas, Timothy Findley and Richard Easton.
Bridget Boland’s powerful drama follows a Catholic cardinal broken down by psychological interrogation in an unnamed Eastern European state.
Programmes featuring Alec Guinness on stage are much sought-after old theatre programmes, and this is a fine example of his serious dramatic work.
