February 27 - March 9, 2019 , The Helen
written by Noël Coward
directed by Jerrold Scott
A witty British comedy from “The Master” Noël Coward. Hay Fever enters the eccentric minds of a retired actress, her novelist husband, and their family. A weekend retreat is anything but relaxing when unsuspecting family and their guests are enlisted as pawns in their outrageous theatrical games. Mismatched romantic pairings and explosive familial rivalries bring out the worst in this dysfunctional team of players.
