Less Than Kind is a sparkling comedy by Terence Rattigan that has been ‘newly discovered’ by Jermyn Street Theatre and now receives its UK premiere in the 100th anniversary year of his birth.

Written towards the end of the Second World War, Less Than Kind is ful of Rattigan’s idealistic sense that post-war Britain should be conducted on fairer lines than in the class-ridden 1930s, with fair shares for all.

Rattigan’s original script has never been performed.
