Castle Players

The Castle Players present R C Sherriff's acclaimed 1928 play Journey's End.

Set in the trenches in 1918 towards the end of the First World War, this intense, at times humorous and ultimately tragic play is set entirely within the confines of a small dug-out below the trenches near the front line.

As the young Captain Stanhope and his battalion await orders for the final push we see the reactions and interplay between the men - young and old - upon whom the horrific conditions in the trenches take their toll.
