Longing (play)
Longing is a 2013 play by the Scottish writer William Boyd based on the short stories "My Life" ("The Story of a Provincial")[1] and "A Visit to Friends" by the Russian author Anton Chekhov. Its premiere production ran at the Hampstead Theatre from 28 February to 6 April 2013 (with press night on 7 March[2][3]), directed by Nina Raine and starring Tamsin Greig, Iain Glen, John Sessions, Jonathan Bailey, Natasha Little, Eve Ponsonby and Catrin Stewart. Boyd, who was theatre critic for the University of Glasgow in the 1970s and has many actor friends, refers to his ambition to write a play as finally getting "this monkey off my back."[3]
