Hay Fever by Noel Coward

About

Hay Fever is one of Noel Coward's most durable comedies, continuing to delight audiences with its astute observations on family relationships and rivalries. The action takes place in the house of the Bliss family over the course of a weekend in the mid 1920s. Judith Bliss, a retired actress, her writer husband David, and their two grown-up children, Simon and Sorel, have all privately invited guests for the weekend, unbeknown to anyone else. As the guests arrive, it becomes clear that it is not them who will be the problem, but the family themselves. Over the top and theatrical in their actions, the Bliss family delight in winding each other up and provoking a dramatic reaction from each other. As the weekend wears on, each guest pairs off with the wrong person with dramatic effects.
