“A potent reminder that theatre, among its myriad other functions, has a mission to inform… the result is an engrossing evening that both heightens our understanding of Darfur and outlines the moral and political dilemma it poses in the starkest possible terms”
The Guardian

A percentage of all book sales proceeds and performance royalties from How Long is Never? Darfur - a response will be donated to the Aegis Trust, a leading independent international organisation dedicated to eliminating genocide in Darfur.
