David Grindley’s international multi-award winning production of R.C. Sheriff’s masterpiece Journey’s End is a must-see of British theatre.
Set in 1917, St Quentin, 18 year-old 2nd Lieutenant Raleigh is the new arrival in the company, commanded by his former schoolboy friend, Captain Stanhope. There’s only three years between them, but a lifetime of experience separates the pair as Raleigh discovers that the man in army greens is much changed from the boy he left behind in cricketing whites.
Based on the author’s own experience in the trenches, this gripping tale about ordinary men in extraordinary circumstances celebrates humour and courage, engaging audiences with a compelling insight of how the human spirit will always triumph in the face of adversity.
