About Hay Fever

Hay Fever is a new production of Noël Coward’s comedy, directed by Emily Burns. It follows Judith Bliss, who has retired from life on stage and already misses the applause. Back at the family’s country home, Judith, her novelist husband David, and their children Sorrel and Simon are too self-involved to be easy hosts.

Judith invites a young fan to stay for the weekend, unaware that each member of the family has also invited a guest. As the arrivals overlap, the house quickly descends into a weekend of parlour games, put-downs and unrequested encores.

Duration: 2 hours including the interval.
