Hay Fever

Emmy, two-time tony, screen actors guild and drama desk winner christine baranski makes her west end debut as the iconic judith bliss, sparring with academy award nominated stage and screen legend richard e. Grant in a stinging new production of noël coward’s irresistible comedy directed by emily burns. Last year, judith retired from her life-on-stage. Already, she misses the applause. Idling away at their country home, the rest of the family reclusive novelist husband david and failure-to-launch children sorrel and simon are too self-involved to be a good audience. So, judith invites a young fan as her guest for the weekend. But unbeknownst to her, each of the blisses have a guest of their own arriving at the very same time. Completely unsuited to hosting and allergic to compromise, the house quickly erupts into a chaos of parlour games, put-downs and unrequested encores. 27 October: please note that trailer filming will take place at this performance. Latecomers will not be admitted. 16 November and 19 november: please note this performance will be filmed. Latecomers will not be admitted. Captioned performance: saturday, 31st october, 2:30pm audio described: tuesday, 3rd november, 7:30pm
