Hay Fever

by Noel Coward

Director - Morgan Mitchell

November 21 - December 21, 2025

Rehearsals will begin Tuesday, Oct. 7th

The action takes place in the house of the Bliss family over the course of a weekend. Judith Bliss, a retired actress, her writer husband David, and their two grown children, Simon and Sorel, have all privately invited guests for the weekend, unbeknownst to each other. As the guests arrive, it becomes clear that the problem lies not with them, but with the family themselves. Although Judith has supposedly retired from the stage, the nightmarish weekend transforms into her own private play, with her family as the supporting actors. Over the top and theatrical in their actions, the Bliss family delights in provoking each other and eliciting dramatic reactions. As the weekend progresses, each guest pairs off with the wrong person, leading to dramatic consequences. Confused and angered by the strange behavior of their hosts, the guests all agree that they must leave immediately. Creeping out of the house, they go unnoticed by the Bliss family, who are once again engaged in a silly, passionate argument about David’s book. Hay Fever provides a sharp, farcical look at a dysfunctional family oblivious to their ill-mannered behavior.
