Present Laughter
Noel Coward's brilliant comedy of manners, Present Laughter, can clearly be viewed as a piece of autobiography. It was first performed in 1942 on a nationwide tour, Noël Coward played the leading role of Garry Essendine, a vain, ill tempered, egotistical actor, who is also witty, talented and charming.
The plot revolves around his convoluted private life, and the demands of his ex- wife, various adoring girlfriends, an eccentric writer, his secretary, valet, housekeeper, theatre manager and producer.
Present Laughter is the product of a master of craftsmanship, each scene builds on the one before, each player becomes a real person, and, most importantly, the dialogue sparkles with wit.
