March 1918. “The war to end all wars”. Anxiety builds in Captain Stanhope’s claustrophobic dugout as the threat of an imminent German attack looms over the battalion. With nothing to do but wait, a deafening silence fills the air as the men; unsure which day will be their last, attempt to deal with the uncertainty of the unknown. Journey’s End is a harrowing insight into the humanity of the First World War based on R. C. Sherriff’s own experiences in the trenches. Utterly compelling, this award-winning classic masterfully brings the courage, valour, humour and inescapable tragedy of warfare to the stage. Burdened by the atrocities of battle and suffering the psychological effects of three years on the front line, Stanhope must stir his men in their final hours as they receive their orders, steady themselves and prepare to “go over the top” in a heart wrenching climax reminding us of the indiscrimination of war. Journey’s End has enjoyed success on Broadway and in the West End, having originally starred Laurence Olivier in the role of Stanhope.
