Award-winning play highlighting NHS nurses' daily lives, based on 70+ interviews.
Tending is an award-winning play that shines a light on the day-to-day lives of NHS nurses. Based on over 70 interviews with nurses of all ages, backgrounds, and nationalities, it immerses you in the experience of life on the ward—the laughs, late-night coffees, hilarity, heartbreak, memorable patients, and enduring friendships. At its core, the play asks: when the system's under pressure and lives are on the line, who takes time to care for the carers? Tending is a love letter to our National Health Service, created with the community who hold it up.
