A Perfect Gentleman
London Review:Greenroom-arts.com
by Kate Copstick
There is a small miracle to be observed at the King's Head -- it's called A Perfect Gentleman and is a new comedy by Herbert Appleman.
Based on the letters between Lord Chesterfield and his illegitimate son, it is a finely told tale of marriages -- political, of convenience, and in secret -- and of fatherhood.
It is a rare genre -- not a fringe play, but rather a miniature West End production.
A Perfect Gentleman is a perfect night at the theatre.
