Hay Fever (Collaboration with The Human Race Theatre Company)
April 8-19, 2026
The Loft Theatre
By Nöel Coward
Director: Bob Hetherington
Hoping for a quiet weekend in the country with some guests, Judith and David Bliss, a retired actress and her novelist husband, find peace to be impossible when their children, Simon and Sorel, appear with guests of their own. A houseful of misunderstandings, tempers, and drama ensue as the quiet weekend comes to a hilarious and exhausting end.
