PRESENT LAUGHTER by Noël Coward

STAR ACTOR GARRY ESSENDINE’S COLOURFUL LIFE IS IN DANGER OF SPIRALLING OUT OF CONTROL.
Suave, hedonistic and too old, says his ex-wife, to be having numerous affairs. When the full extent of his misdemeanours are discovered, all hell breaks loose. As he prepares to embark on an overseas tour, Garry is consumed by an intensifying identity crisis as his many relationships compete for his attention. His few remaining days at home are a chaotic whirlwind of love, sex, panic and soul-searching. PRESENT LAUGHTER, Noël Coward’s irresistible and semi-autobiographical comedy, is a surprisingly modern reflection on fame, desire and loneliness.
