Wormwood Scrubs prison holds up to 1280 male inmates, from drug addicted petty villains to sophisticated thieves and violent disturbed criminals.

The Devils Chair is a tale of a simple man fucked over by demons that are not just in his mind but, rather, all too real.

He is aided by Andrew Howards intense performance as the brutal antihero, deftly flipping from pained vulnerability to savage rage. Complemented by an elegantly haunting score by Zoe Keating, buzzing flies, peeling paint and rotting debris are spun into a nightmare vision of a hell that might live in the darkest recesses of the human psyche.
