Love in Idleness/Less Than Kind by Terence Rattigan
The third in Terence Rattigan's unofficial trilogy of war plays, published alongside an earlier version of the play, Less Than Kind, never staged during Rattigan's lifetime.'Few dramatists of this century have written with more understanding of the human heart than Terence Rattigan'
* Guardian *'A universally relevant observation of parents and children and the problems of finding true, true love… a play well-worth rediscovering'
* WhatsOnStage *'A glorious – and rare – wartime Terence Rattigan play… turns on a sixpence from Chekhovian despair to frothing farce… often howlingly funny, but it has that Rattigan tang, the streak of honest agony and conflicted love which shakes the heart'
* TheatreCat *'An ingenious fusion of domestic tragi-comedy and political debate… this work has now entered the canon of must-do Rattigan'
* Telegraph *Sir Terence Rattigan was one of the most popular English 20th-century dramatists. His first play, First Episode, was produced in 1934; his best-known later works include After the Dance, Flare Path, The Browning Version and The Deep Blue Sea. Many of his plays have been adapted for film, and are frequently revived. He also served as an RAF tail gunner in WWII.
