Two female doctors face each other smiling

Nina Raine’s searingly honest NHS drama follows a tangle of doctors and nurses in a busy London hospital, directed by Guildhall alumnus Ashley Zhangazha.

In this dark, yet witty new production of Nina Raine’s acclaimed drama, professionalism and prejudice, turbulent staff romances, ambition and failure collide in this swirling narrative about a crumbling health service, the dedicated individuals who keep it going and how this affects the patients they come into contact with.  

Director and Guildhall alumnus Ashley Zhangazha brings the world of frontline workers to life, demonstrating the human and psychological toll placed on those who work in the NHS.  

The acclaimed drama premiered at Hampstead Theatre in 2011 and, following its sell-out run, was revived there in 2014.
