"We were so ridiculously over in love.

Funny wasn’t it?

Horribly funny..."

 

Noel Coward’s timeless comedy of manners, Private Lives is heading on a tour of the UK, starring Dionysus favourites Lauren Whedbee & Robert Tremayne (in parts originally played by Coward and Gertrude Lawrence in the play’s 1930 premiere). They are joined by other company treasures; David Upcraft & Mollie Simpson who are stepping straight into a glittering new production to face the ordeals of married life. Founding member Vicky Newman is back in the directors seat after the huge success of her production of 'The Woman in White' last year. 

 

Elyot and Amanda are forced to face a difficult choice; do they confront their true feelings for each other? or do they forget that there is a real possibility that they may have made a pair of mistaken marriages? Driven by passion and determination, the divorcees attempt to escape their partners and flee to Amanda's apartment in Paris, to pick up where they left off with the vicious slanging match…but maybe, just maybe this time it’ll be a fairytale romance...
