Keeler (play)


Keeler is a play written by Gill Adams, which has a plot regarding the Profumo affair and elements of its aftermath. The play is based on Christine Keeler's 2001 autobiography The Truth At Last: My Story, and is described as being produced with her 'sanction and involvement'.

The plot covers the period from when Keeler was initially introduced by Stephen Ward to John Profumo, and ends soon after Ward's death from suicide.

The play was produced at the Richmond Theatre in 2011 and at the Charing Cross Theatre, London, in late 2013. The Charing Cross production ran until 14 December.

The play has received mixed reviews. One, described the play as a 'dud', but another while pointing out that the factual accuracy of the play is uncertain (because 'We can't be sure what really happened'), said that if 'judged purely as drama...it works admirably.'
