About “The Deep Blue Sea”

The Deep Blue Sea is a British stage play written by Terence Rattigan in 1952. The story and characters were partly inspired by Rattigan's secret relationship with Kenny Morgan and the emotional aftermath of its end. The play premiered in London on 6 March 1952, directed by Frith Banbury, and featured Peggy Ashcroft and Kenneth More. It was later staged in the United States at the Plymouth Theater in October 1952, starring Margaret Sullavan. The production moved to Broadway, where it opened on 5 November 1953 and ran for 132 performances. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
