PRESENT LAUGHTER
BY Noel Coward directed by Gordon Reinhart November 13-15 & 19-22, November 16 & 23, Stage II In this most autobiographical of his plays, Noel Coward invites us into the life of a 1930's English stage star to see the price his fame and fortune have wrought! Friends, lovers. relatives, and theatre acolytes sparkle around Garry Essendine like bubbles in a fine champagne. While Garry struggles to plan his upcoming trip to Africa, his elegant London flat is invaded by a lovestruck ingenue, an adulterous producer, and a married seductress-along with Garry's estranged wife Liz and the unforgettable Roland Maule, an aspiring and overly passionate young playwright who is quite, quite mad. A classic farce, Present Laughter offers us the unmatchable wit and enduring energy of one of the theatre's most brilliant playwrights. What is love? 'Tis not hereafter, Present mirth hath present laughter What's to come is still unsure. In delay there lies no plenty, Then come kiss me, sweet and twenty. Youth's a stuff will not endure. Feste in Shakespeare's Twelfth Night Note: Adult content |
