Opening
What if you were invited to a dinner party where the hosts are so weird and self-absorbed that your only relief is to tiptoe away? That is the plot of "Hay Fever," Noël Coward's farcical comedy of manners that has rarely been out of fashion since its 1925 premiere in London. Members of the comically eccentric Bliss family independently have invited several guests to their country home on the Thames. Harriet Harris plays matriarch and former actress Judith,and Simon Jones is patriarch and novelist David. British director Christopher Luscombe directs, and Barbara Bryne plays Bliss, the family's help, the same role she played on Broadway in 1985.
