Directed by Lindsay Posner and starring Felicity Kendal and Simon Shepherd,
Noël Coward's hilarious comedy has been a favourite amongst theatregoers
ever since it first dazzled London's West End in 1925. Meet the Bliss family:
recently-retired Judith, once a star of the London stage; David, an egocentric
novelist; and Sorel and Simon, their two Bohemian adult children.
Unconventional, risqué, and often downright rude, they are everything a
respectable English family should not be. When each member of the family
invites a guest to their rural retreat, misjudged meetings, secret seductions
and scandalous revelations proliferate during one outrageous weekend.
7.30pm, with matinees on 11 & 13 Sep. Price: £18-£33.50.
