A lost Rattigan play directed by a friend of the playwright

INTERVIEW: ADRIAN BROWN

The writer and director tells Carole Woddis about Terence Rattigan’s lost play, Less Than Kind (an early version of Love in Idleness), which is currently enjoying a sell-out premiere at the Jermyn Street Theatre, with a cast led by Michael Simkins and Sara Crowe. He also reflects on his 60-year career.

We were looking for a play to produce and since I’d been a great friend of Rattigan this really was an ideal project.
