Welcome to Hay Fever, Noel Coward's sparkling masterpiece, which, although written in only three days, he regarded as his best comedy.
Studio Theatre's production is directed by Paula Morante with performances at Studio Theatre, Ilfracombe College at 7.45pm from Wednesday 28th February to Friday 2nd March 2007.
We are pleased to welcome new members to this production who join some of our well-known actors:
David Bliss - Alan Bailey
Sorel Bliss - Fenella Hinton
Simon Bliss - Sam Thomas
Myra Arundel - Marge Ash
Richard Greatham - Tony Parker
Jackie Coryton - Sara Pruce
Sandy Tyrell - Darren Gosling
Clara - Julie Moore
Mr and Mrs Bliss both have their public admirers who enable them to recall their past successes: she for her stage performances and he for his novel writing. This atmosphere of self-absorption and artistic adulation has had an effect on their son and daughter, now in their early twenties, who are confident and charming to those they like, but direct and rude to those they don't.
Be amazed at the way the family and guests face the situation, fraught with misunderstandings, chaos and hilarity. As the bewildered guests are subjected to one outrageous ordeal after another, will they ever manage to escape?
• Tickets are priced £6 and are available from Alan Jackson Shoe Repairer in Ilfracombe High Street, by emailing drama@studiotheatreonline.org.uk or pay on the door. Full details at www.studiotheatreonline.org.uk
