  7. Books are down (almost) and the set is up (almost). So if you're thinking of coming to see our next production, don't leave it too late to buy tickets. And don't forget, for years it was banned in the UK, so it must be good!

    "I see her as one great stampede of lips directed at the nearest derriere." Noel Coward

  21. Musical Interlude: Here's a fun little bit of spring joy....this was composed as part of a musical revue, with wry commentary on the garish scenery that the singer was standing in front of!

  22. Sir Noël Coward refused to sell the play (the script can be read for free here archive.org/details/blithespir) to be made into a Hollywood film b/c he hated previous American stage versions of “Blithe Spirit”. That said he really wanted Myrna Loy to play Elvira but rat bastard Louis B. Mayer refused to loan her out so Kay Hammond was cast instead

  23. This song popped into my mind while I was hauling groceries from my van to my apartment in the nasty-hot sun. Noel Coward turns up the witty charm to 11 on this 1932 recording.
