A picture of a glamourous woman from the 1920s

About

This classic comedy tells the story of Amanda and Elyot. It has been 5 years since their disastrous marriage and divorce. Now both of them are honeymooning with their  new spouses when the couples have the misfortune to find themselves in adjoining suites of their luxury French hotel. The spark between Amanda and  Elyot blazes back into life. They cannot live without each other. But the question is: can they live with each other?

Written by Noël Coward, and probably his biggest hit, he himself took the role of Elyot in the first production and wrote the song Someday I’ll Find You especially to feature in the play. Filled with zinging one-liners, this play will give you an evening which is fun, intriguing, and just a tiny bit provocative – which is perhaps why it feels so modern!
