Om författaren

In 1964, when Hay Fever (1925) was placed in the repertory of the newly organized National Theatre, Noel Coward professed to be grateful: "Bless you for admitting that I'm a classic." A week-long series of Coward played on BBC television in 1969; there have been major revivals in London and New visa mer York; plays long out of print have been republished in popular collections. At the start of the 1960s, though, Coward's reputation had been at an ebb, as he skirmished with the angry new drama. Coward had enjoyed no big success since Blithe Spirit of 1941. There have been attempts to assimilate the rehabilitated Coward to contemporary drama. Coward himself profited from the new freedom when, in 1965, his Song at Twilight discussed homosexuality, a subject that he had evaded throughout his career. A juvenile prodigy, Coward was by turns actor, director, composer, lyricist, autobiographer, and author of nearly 60 theater pieces. He even wrote screenplays, notably for In Which We Serve (1942) and Brief Encounter (1946). Although he specialized in light comedy, the so-called comedy of manners, he worked in many forms including patriotic spectacle, revue, musical, farce, even the problem play. Hay Fever, Blithe Spirit, and Private Lives (1930) have proved to be the most durable of his comedies, along with nine short plays presented as Tonight at 8:30. In each, characters demonstrate the combination of perpetual role playing, cool hedonism, and energizing self-absorption. (Bowker Author Biography) visa färre

Blithe Spirit (Modern Classics) av Noel Coward

Somehow I’ve never read a Noël Coward play. I know—how dare?!

This was a lot of fun. I hope to be able to see a live production of it someday.

Present Laughter av Noël Coward

Coward’s play, written in 1939 and first produced in 1942 in the United Kingdom, and in 1946 in the United States is a hugely funny comedy of manners surround the domestic life of a famous stage actor, a rather wicked self-portrait of the author surrounded by a circle of friends and business partners, and plagued by a few ill-behaved fans. The first word of the title is pronounced as a verb, and assuredly has that effect when presented to an audience.

This 2017 edition of the acting script is introduced by Moritz von Stuelpnagal the director of the Broadway production that opened in April 2017, so it’s to be presumed that the technical details: stage directions, props lists, and stage design are based on that production.… (mer)

Hay Fever av Noël Coward

3.5*

While I enjoyed this full cast audiobook of the play, I didn't find it as funny as I expected. Perhaps it needed the visual aspect - I will have to see if I can find a video or film of this online somewhere.
