Journey’s End

Journey’s End:  December 12^th and 13^th 6 p.m. in the theatre 

After three years of absence, the English play returns with a stellar production of R.C. Sherriff’s Journey’s End. Set in a dugout in a World War 1 trench, the play details the anxious wait of a small group of officers and soldiers for an attack by the enemy. Sherriff explores weighty themes such as heroism, comradeship, and the futility of war, though the play is punctuated with some comic relief. Directed by Mr Kirk Wootton, who has taken over full directorial responsibility from Mr Douglas Allan, the cast of ten includes students ranging from Year 9 to 12.  They have worked incredibly hard this term on this great production. 

Please come along to support this wonderful production on either December 12^th or 13^th. Free tickets are available from reception before 2.30 p.m. on any school day. There will be a bake sale in the interval in support of the Tanzania trip.
