About Hay Fever

Hay Fever is a new production of Noël Coward’s comedy directed by Emily Burns. It centres on Judith Bliss, who has retired from life on stage but still misses the applause.

Set at the Blisses’ country home, the story follows a family weekend that quickly unravels when Judith invites a young fan, while each of the other Blisses also have a guest arriving at the same time. The result is a mix of parlour games, put-downs and unrequested encores as the household struggles to host and to compromise.

Key facts: Runs for 2 hours including the interval.
