Fallen Angels is a play that premiered in 1925, precisely 100 years ago. Due to the play including women admitting premarital sex and also considering adultery, it was initially subject to scrutiny by the theatre censor, the office of the Lord Chamberlain. Eventually, the required license was granted due to intervention by the Lord Chamberlain.
After its rocky beginnings, this Noël Coward comedy has become a theatre classic that still resonates a century later.

Artistic Director of the Menier Chocolate Factory, David Babani, said of their 2025/26 shows, “These three wonderful plays - Fallen Angels, The Holy Rosenbergs and Equus - tackle the very contemporary and compelling themes of the power of female friendship.”
This play explores a wide range of themes such as jealousy, love, and friendship. It also highlights the social constraints on women in the 1920s.
Following a 2016 revival at Trinity Street Theatre in Texas, the Broadway World review said of the production, “I recommend Fallen Angels to anyone who enjoys classic comedy and an extremely enjoyable evening at the theatre.”
