Free tickets for Journey's End

Original Theatre Company, Icarus Theatre Collective and Anvil Arts in association with South Hill Park Arts Centre present the national tour of:

Journey’s End
By R.C. Sheriff
Co-Produced & Directed by Alastair Whatley
Produced by Max Lewendel

The young, talented and war-weary Captain Stanhope is confronted with the fresh face of his past as an old schoolmate joins his platoon. This compelling play based on R. C. Sherriff's own experience in the trenches of World War I with its heroism, humour and inevitable tragedy shows courage in the face of uncertain odds.

For further information on the production visit www.icarustheatre.co.uk/shows/journey.html.

This coming Tuesday and Wednesday, 26 & 27 January, we have a lot of great press in and are giving away free tickets to the first ten people who reply to this email stating which night they prefer. Act now!
