Full Cast Announced For West End Hay Fever, Starring Lindsay Duncan

The full cast is set for the previously announced West End production of Noel Coward's Hay Fever, starring Lindsay Duncan, Jeremy Northam, Kevin McNally and Olivia Colman. Directed by Howard Davies, Hay Fever begins its run at the Noel Coward Theatre on February 2, 2012, with opening night set for February 23. The limited engagement concludes June 2.

Joining Duncan and rest of the principals will be Sam Callis (A Midsummer Night's Dream) as Sandy Tyrell, Freddie Fox (A Flea in Her Ear) as Simon Bliss, Jenny Galloway (Anna Christie) as Clara, Amy Morgan (Inadmissible Evidence) as Jackie Coryton and Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Tribes) as Sorel Bliss.

Judith Bliss (Duncan), once a glittering star of the London stage, now in early retirement, is still enjoying life with more than a little high drama and the occasional big scene. To spice up her weekend, Judith invites a young suitor to join her in the country. However, her novelist husband, David (McNally), and her two eccentric children, Simon and Sorel, have had the same idea for themselves and any hope for private flirtation disappears as the family’s guests begin to arrive. Misjudged meetings, secret seductions and scandalous revelations all run riot at the most outrageous of all house parties.

The production features set design by Bunny Christie, lighting by Mark Henderson and sound design by Mike Walker.
