If you are a Noel Coward fan, this is not to be missed. The actors are obviously having a great time - with the result that the audience do too! We went to the April 18th matinee and thoroughly enjoyed it. Everyone played their parts to perfection with plenty of panache and enthusiasm. I heartily recommend it!

Very witty, slow at the start but takes of wonderfully. Very relaxing comedy ie easy to understand. the acting is deliberately exaggerated with the children but not to be taken seriously.

Wonderful show. Brilliant cast. Lindsay Duncan is stunning as Judith and I was left laughing all night. Recommend any theatre goer to go and see this.

I thoroughly enjoyed this production. I don't know how it could have been mounted any better - it was a thrill as an American enjoying her first visit to London to see these actors at work, but there was something about it that felt a bit off, in general. Sometimes that sense for me is just something ineffable. At any rate, the strongest actor of the lot is Jeremy Northam. How he endows not only the dialogue with meaning specific to his character but the PAUSES. I almost fell out of my seat I was laughing so hard. He also makes the character poignant; an unfortunate dupe for the Bliss family to toy with. See it before it's GONE!

I certainly enjoyed this production but it is a period piece that needs to be judged as that. It is a comedy of manners - or lack of - that makes this enjoyable but not to everyone's taste. Cast is strong and the characters are well played with efficient directing. I loved Clara the maid and expected her to burst into song at anytime! My only criticism is that Ms. Duncan needs to speak up! The rest of the cast projected well but the lead was often far to quiet and really underprojected making it difficult to hear. I was in row F of the stalls and not yet in my dotage! The first rule of theatre, I always thought, was that the words need to be heard please Ms. Duncan let us easily hear Noel's witty words with ease.
