Durham University Classical Theatre proudly presents Noël Coward's 'Hay Fever' - 100 years after it was first performed! Step into the eccentric world of the Bliss family where drama, romance, and absurdity collide in a weekend of hilarious misadventures.
''Hay Fever' is a sparkling comedy of manners that invites audiences into the chaotic country home of the unconventional Bliss family. Retired actress Judith, her novelist husband David, and their high-spirited children, Simon and Sorel, each unknowingly invite a guest for the weekend - only to subject them to a whirlwind of emotional outbursts, theatrical tantrums, and bewildering social games. As the bemused visitors struggle to keep up with the family's eccentricities, misunderstandings and melodrama escalate, leaving them desperate to escape. Noël Coward’s razor-sharp wit and timeless humour make Hay Fever a delightful exploration of self-absorption, absurdity, and the art of performance.
