A theatre production about John Maynard Keynes is drawing attention for its portrait of the economist and his circle. Alongside the drama, commentary highlights biographical detail: Keynes was forthright and confident in expressing his opinions, yet self-conscious about his appearance, considering himself repulsive, a view contemporaries such as Virginia Woolf reportedly shared.
