A phrase we used to use: it is the best gift the British people have given to themselves. Because it is. No one else has done this. The NHS belongs to us. Over eighteen months Michael Wynne interviewed nurses, doctors, paramedics, historians, policy makers and politicians up and down the country, gathering an unrivalled collection of testimonies from those connected to every aspect of the NHS. In a this verbatim play, he gives voice to unheard perspectives on its past, present and possible future. Who Cares premiered at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in April 2015 in the run up to the General Election.
