A tremendous cast (led by the great William Gaunt in the title role) at Finborough Theatre in The Truth About Blayds, Finborough Theatre - I went because I’m fascinated by A A Milne having spent a year writing his story. I stayed to cheer because the play is so good & so brilliantly done. 5 stars.

REVIEW: THE TRUTH ABOUT BLAYDS by A. A. Milne at Finborough Theatre 9 Sept – 4 Oct 2025 The Truth About Blayds, Finborough Theatre Andrew Curtis • 17 September 2025 “Why the play has been neglected for so long is a mystery … it is especially timely.” ★★★★ ½ londonpubtheatres.com/review-the-tru…
"Timely", I think, because it's about greed & fraud & celebrity & self interest. But that makes The Truth About Blayds sound depressing. It's not: it's also funny, moving & as gently witty as you might expect from A.A. Milne . Find out Finborough Theatre to 4 October.
