RC Sheriff's finely poised, beautifully written drama is finally coming to the end of its hugely successful run.

Set among a group of officers in the First World War trenches, just before the big push, it set new standards for wartime realism in 1929, and launched the career of Laurence Olivier as alcoholic Captain Stanhope.

David Grindley's direction draws out superlative performances from the all-male cast in a poignant production that has proved popular across the age bracket.
