Anyone going to see this play by A.A Milne at the Jermyn St theatre. I went to today's rather rare Thursday matinee show and loved it. The purists may feel its a little dated but it holds out well.

Glad to read this as I really want to see the play and so wish I hadn't filled my theatre slot for yesterday's matinee as the timing would have been perfect. Last chance Saturday evening, now I'm not seeing Our Ladies, but what with the higher prices and online booking fee (plus no facility to choose your seat location), I will have to try in person.

Saw it a week or so ago. It was rather amusing, lovely set and nice cast. James Sheldon as Nicholas steals the entire thing. And once he's stolen it, he keeps on running with it. One of the most delightful performances you'll see all year.

Caught the final performance today - which was sold out and had people waiting in vain for returns - and was glad I did.
I'd never heard of this play nor, until Jermyn Street Theatre announced the production, had I been aware that A A Milne had written plays at all, and had I had to guess the author I'd probably have opted for J B Priestley, as the set-up and plot development were reminiscent of one of his "Time" plays. I thought it was an excellent production which really served the piece well and made it hard to imagine a better version.
