Bronson: A One-Man Live Theatre Play

Based on the life of Michael Peterson, also known as Charles Bronson and Charles Salvador, this production is Francis Saunders' own theatrical interpretation and is not intended to be a factual or documentary account.What creates a man? The child he was, the violence he witnessed, the system that imprisoned him, or the masks he wore to survive?BRONSON is a powerful one-man theatre play that explores the life, mythology and humanity of one of Britain's most talked-about prisoners.

Through six compelling characters, Francis Saunders brings to the stage his own interpretation of the events, emotions and personalities that shaped the man behind the legend, by examining identity, trauma, isolation, art, survival and redemption through dramatic storytelling.Written and performed by Francis Saunders, whose acclaimed Monologues of Men played to sold-out audiences in London, BRONSON continues his exploration of masculinity, mental health and the stories that exist behind public perception.
