Violent Playground is a black and white 1958 British film directed by Basil Dearden and starring Stanley Baker, Peter Cushing, and David McCallum. It was written by James Kennaway.

Production

The film was the first leading role in an "A" picture for Anne Heywood. It was once known as Firefly.

The lead went to Stanley Baker. He said "The script is very exciting. It has the same kind of quality as The Blackboard Jungle. ”

The film was shot on location in Gerard Gardens in Liverpool. Some interior scenes were shot at Pinewood Studios, and the school scenes were shot at St Mary and St Michael School, Sutton Street, Stepney, London E1.

It played throughout Europe on its initial release, but failed to break into the US market, where a glut of similar films was being produced. The film began airing on local US television stations in mid-1960, and the film aired sporadically throughout the decade.
