Review: SHADOWLANDS, Starring Hugh Bonneville and Maggie Siff
by Aliya Al-Hassan - Feb 13, 2026

In his book, A Grief Observed, C.S. Lewis wrote, 'The pain I feel now is the happiness I had before. That's the deal'. It's that deal that William Nicholson's poignant play explores in the true story of Lewis's late-in-life love, marriage and loss. Thoughtful, tender and touching, Shadowlands examines joy and grief as a profoundly human experience.
