The Shawshank Redemption at Ottawa Little Theatre

When banker Andy Dufresne is wrongly convicted for the murder of his wife and her lover, and sentenced to life in the notorious Shawshank prison, he must creatively use his talents and wits to keep himself and his hope alive. Based on the novella by Stephen King, and immortalized in one of the all-time great films, this story of resilience is brilliantly brought to the stage.
