Restoration is set in eighteenth-century England: a world of
cruelty, injustice and iron privilege. Lord Are is forced by poverty
into an unwanted marriage with the daughter of a wealthy mineowner. One
morning, during breakfast, he commits a bizarre and fatal crime. He
seeks to pin responsibility for it on his guileless, illiterate
footman, Bob Hedges. A battle ensues between Bob's black,
justice-hungry wife and the fortified privilege of the ruling classes.


This is a new programme text edition of the play with minor
revisions to the original text and produced for the tour by Oxford
Staeg Company.

Edward Bond is one of the great Britsih playwrights of the
twentieth/twenty-first centuries. In 1965 his grim portrait of urban
violence, Saved, in which a baby is stoned in its pram, aroused much
admiration as well as a ban from the Lord Chamberlain. His provocative
plays [including Early Morning (1969), Lear (1971), The Sea (1973), The
Fool (1975), Restoration (1981), Summer (1982), The War Plays (1985)
and Olly's Prison (1992)] continue to arouse extreme responses from
critics and audiences.
