the end of history... by Jack Thorne
A play about families, parenting, and gigantic clashes of values.'Thorne has a gift for dialogue.. a sophisticated unhappy families sitcom'
* The Times *'Clever and highly intriguing... has a clever, accelerated Posy Simmonds-meets-Ionesco air, and throughout is a devastating verbal spree... a piercing look at the liabilities (and benefits) of being the offspring of political idealists... both satire and celebration'
* Independent *'A tender, bracing and beautiful portrait of family life... Thorne's compassionate, deeply textured study of this family has a lovely inner life that pulses with themes of curdling parental embarrassment, mental crisis, love, loss and legacy... a seriously good, warm-hearted play'
* London Theatre *'Absorbing... Thorne is a writer of immense emotional intelligence and his dialogue regularly devastates'
* The Stage *Jack Thorne’s other collaborations with John Tiffany include Harry Potter and the Cursed Child (for which he won both the Olivier and Tony Awards for Best New Play) and Let the Right One In. His other plays include When You Cure Me, Junkyard, and adaptations of Büchner’s Woyzeck, and Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. He is a BAFTA-winning screenwriter for TV, whose shows include Kiri, National Treasure, The Last Panthers, Glue, The Fades and This is England ’86/’88/’90.
