Justice? is Jeff Rozelaar's documentary drama about the Old Bailey trials of Derek Bentley and Ruth Ellis at Norman Bragg Studio, Aylesbury. Book tickets.
Jeff Rozelaar's documentary drama Justice? places audiences in the public gallery of the Old Bailey for the real murder trials of Derek Bentley and Ruth Ellis, two contested capital cases from the early 1950s. The piece asks whether, as a juror, you would have sent either defendant to the gallows.
The drama frames the audience as participants in the courtroom, revisiting both trials and the national division they provoked over capital punishment.
The production carries particular resonance in 2026: Justice Secretary David Lammy informed MPs that the King had granted a conditional pardon in the exceptional case of Ruth Ellis, following a campaign by her grandchildren. That development gives the evening a contemporary weight beyond its period setting.
