Noel Coward Collected Plays: THREE: Design for Living / Cavalcade / Conversation Piece / Tonight at 8.30 9i) / Still Life: v.3 - Brossura
The third volume of Coward's plays contains some of his best work from
the thirties.
Design for Living - is about a triangular alliance
between two men and a woman, based on friends of Coward's, which he
waited to write "until she and he and I had arrived by different roads
in our careers at a time and a place when we felt we could all three
play together with a more or less equal degree of success." Cavalcade
was Coward's most ambitious stage project, set during the Boer War,
which cost £30,000 in its day and which includes scenes of the relief
of the sinking of the Titanic and the coming of the Jazz Age. Conversation Piece is a musical comedy that Noël wrote for the Parisian
star Yvonne Printemps and includes the song "I'll Follow My Secret
Heart".
Also in the volume are three short plays including Tonight at 8.30 -
Hands Across the Sea, a gentle satire of colonials and London Society;
Still Life which became the film Brief Encounter and Fumed Oak a suburban
comedy about a 'worm who turns'. The volume is introduced by Sheridan
Morley.

L'autore:
Noël Coward was born in 1899 in Teddington, Middlesex. He made his name as a playwright with The Vortex (1924), in which he also appeared. His numerous other successful plays included Fallen Angels (1925), Hay Fever (1925), Private Lives (1933), Design for Living (1933) and Blithe Spirit (1941). During the war he wrote screenplays such as Brief Encounter (1944) and In Which We Serve (1942). In the fifties he began a new career as a cabaret entertainer. He published volumes of verse and a novel (Pomp and Circumstance, 1960), two volumes of autobiography and four volumes of short stories: To Step Aside (1939), Star Quality (1951), Pretty Polly Barlow (1964) and Bon Voyage (1967). He was knighted in 1970 and died three years later in Jamaica.
