Synopsis

No one in modern English comedy boasts a more seductively comic or escapist approach to life than the self-absorbed family in Noel Coward’s Hay Fever.
This is a comedy of bad manners, in which a family of insufferably self-regarding bohemians treat their more conventional guests with abominable rudeness at a weekend house party. There is a splendid clipped precision about Coward’s dialogue, and the constant realisation that the characters are actually thinking very different things from the banal platitudes they actually utter.
