I’m very excited to hear that there will be a new production of E. M. Delafield’s play To See Ourselves this year. Running from 1-10 July 2025 at the White Bear Theatre, 138 Kennington Park Road, London SE11 4DJ, this is I think the first production of the play in the UK since the 1950s. A comedy of married life, it was a huge hit when first staged in 1930, running for over a year at the Ambassador’s Theatre in the West End before touring. It was revived many times by repertory companies during the 1930s and 1940s, as well as being performed in New York and Australia. If you enjoy the Provincial Lady books you will enjoy this, too; it’s very funny on the page and I’m looking forward to seeing it brought to life.
