The Children’s Hour - theatre review
The Children’s Hour at The Comedy Theatre
Kiera Knightley and Elisabeth Moss are just two of the acting talents that help bring The Children’s Hour back to life in its West End return.

With Hollywood stars Kiera Knightley and Elisabeth Moss heading up a West End reprisal of Lillian Hellman’s 1934 melodrama, expectations are high. Ian Rickson is in the director’s chair, following great acclaim for his direction of Jez Butterworth’s Jerusalem. Yet again, he brings the best out of a talented cast who give electric and impassioned performances, adding depth to a plot that is lacking at times.
