PHOTO CALL: A Look at London's Hay Fever With Jeremy Northam, Lindsay Duncan and More
By Krissie Fullerton 17 Feb 2012
Lindsay Duncan and Jeremy Northam star in a new production of Noël Coward's Hay Fever, which began performances Feb. 10 at the London theatre that bears the playwright's name.
In addition to Northam and Duncan, the cast also includes Kevin R. McNally, Olivia Colman, Sam Callis, Freddie Fox, Jenny Galloway, Amy Morgan and Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
In the comedy, written in 1924 and premiered at London's Ambasadors Theatre the following year, Judith Bliss (Duncan), once glittering star of the London stage, now in early retirement, is still enjoying life with more than a little high drama and the occasional big scene. To spice her weekend up, Judith invites a younger suitor (Northam) to join her in the country.
However, her novelist husband, David (McNally), and her two eccentric children, Simon and Sorel, have had the same idea for themselves and any hope for private flirtation disappears as the family's guests begin to arrive. Misjudged meetings, secret seductions and scandalous revelations duly follow.
