Hay Fever

About Hay Fever

Hay Fever is Noël Coward’s comedy in a new production, with Emmy, two-time Tony, Screen Actors Guild and Drama Desk winner Christine Baranski making her West End debut as Judith Bliss alongside Academy Award nominated stage and screen actor Richard E. Grant. The production is directed by Emily Burns.

Set at the Blisses’ country home, the story follows Judith, who retired from life on stage last year but already misses the applause. With her husband David and children Sorrel and Simon more interested in themselves than in hosting, Judith invites a young fan to stay for the weekend.

That plan quickly unravels when each member of the family also brings home a guest of their own. The result is a household full of parlour games, put-downs and unrequested encores, as the Blisses prove thoroughly unsuited to compromise.

Key facts: Noël Coward comedy; Christine Baranski stars as Judith Bliss; Richard E. Grant also appears; directed by Emily Burns.
