A great cast assembled for The Truth About Blayds @finborough London.

A.A.Milne's 1921 play about celebrity.

Looking forward to seeing the great #WilliamGaunt in the title role.

Great to be working with @finborough theatre again this summer on A.A.Milne's 1921 play The Truth About Blayds (2-27 September ). Neither Winnie the Pooh nor Tigger appear. But it's a reminder that in the 1920s Milne was seen as one of the leading dramatists of the day for "grown-ups".
