Our Boys Tickets

Camaraderie and dark humour – It’s Our Boys

Fired by anger at the neglect of Britain’s wounded heroes, who return home to a cold welcome and are left to recover the best they can from the horrific injuries they suffered while serving their country, this is a poignant and darkly funny exploration of servicemen’s experiences. As our soldiers continue to give their all in foreign theatres of war, this play is just as relevant now as it was back in 1993 when it won a coveted Best New Play award.

This is the play’s first West End production, coming hot from the same production team that made the international stage hit Journey's End such a roaring success.

Our boys - The story

Based on the author's own army experiences, Our Boys is uncomfortably honest and hilariously funny at the same time, a potent mix. Five young soldiers are back home, slowly recovering from injuries they suffered when on duty. But their dull routine of daytime telly, lonely hearts adverts and typically British banter, which so often masks pain and distress, is dramatically broken into pieces with the arrival of a certain young officer.

The small band of men, all very different, have built up an unlikely camaraderie, but a dangerous incident threatens to break them apart and betrayal is an ugly bed mate. Charges of misconduct are on the cards, all sorts of accusations are flying and the fighting soon starts in earnest…

Perfect for the over 12s

There’s some strong language and the themes of this play are distinctly adult, so it’s recommended for people aged twelve and above.
