Noël Coward, Hay Fever (1924)

Opening Act: Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night’s Dream (performed by JS1, Englischkurs Herr Schuster)

The self-centred and eccentric Bliss family consists of Judith, a glamorous actress, David, a temperamental novelist, Sorel and Simon, two “awfully bad mannered” grown-up children. They all hate conventions, but love theatricality and treat their guests invited down for a summer weekend in the countryside with much rudeness.

The more than irritated guests are about to flee…
