November 10: The Abbey Players Present “Journey’s End”

October 31st, 2011

A moving tribute to the heroism and sacrifice of a lost generation of young men.

Written by R.C. Sheriff
Directed by Simon Donoghue
8:00 p.m. at the Haid Theatre,
November 10, 11, 12, 17, 18 and 19


Set in the claustrophobic confines of a dug-out in St Quentin on the eve of World War I’s last great offensive, the action revolves around a group of men led by Captain Stanhope, a young officer on the brink of a breakdown. Only whisky keeps his shattered nerves from complete disintegration. His hopes of anonymity are shattered when fresh-faced Raleigh joins his division, a boy he’s known at school whose arrival acts as the catalyst for a dramatic confrontation. Sheriff’s play was written and first performed in 1929, when the memory of the Great War was fresh. Eighty years have done nothing to diminish the impact of this tribute to the heroism and sacrifice of a lost generation of young men.
