All of the cast, and I, have enjoyed the laughter and tears from the audience and can't believe we only have ten days left before it's all over! London you've been a blast, you've not seen the last of me - I will really miss being here and performing for all of you guys!"

A sharply written and hilarious dark comedy, The End of Longing will make you realise that broken people don't need to stay broken.
