Present Laughter – a Africa interest event taking place on 2018-04-13 19:30:00 in United States
Present Laughter is a comic play written by Noël Coward in 1939 and first staged in 1942. The play's title comes from a song in Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, which urges carpe diem ("present mirth hath present laughter"). The plot follows a few days in the life of the successful and self-obsessed light comedy actor Garry Essendine as he prepares to travel for a touring commitment in Africa. Amid a series of events bordering on farce, Garry has to deal with women who want to seduce him, placate both his long suffering secretary and his estranged wife, cope with a crazed young playwright, and overcome his impending mid-life crisis. The play has en-joyed numerous revivals in Europe and North America – including a limited run revival on Broadway in June and July 2017, when Kevin Kline reprised his portrayal of Essendine and earned 2017’s Tony award for best actor. The revival also earned a nomination for best revival of a play in 2017. Come enjoy watching our local EPAF thespians in this “mirthful” comedy jewel of a play.
