What's On > Spring-Summer_2008_Season > The Graduate by Terry Johnson (adapted from the
novel by Charles Webb and screenplay by Calder Willingham and Buck Henry) Benjamin Braddock has just received his college degree. Confused and unwilling to commit to the future, he does not want to follow in the footsteps of his wealthy family and friends. But when Benjamin becomes embroiled in an affair with an older woman - the seductive Mrs Robinson - he thinks life can’t get any more complicated. That is, until he falls for Elaine Robinson, his lover’s daughter … Benjamin is a boy who has everything but doesn’t know what he wants in this satirical, coming-of-age comedy. Adapted from the novel by Charles Webb, and subsequent film starring Anne Bancroft and Dustin Hoffman, this is a funny and evocative tale of sexual misadventure and teenage rebellion in the mid-1960s.
