    A sparkling, hilarious and technically brilliant short comedy, 'Hands Across the Sea' is set at a cocktail party in a smart London flat where the telephone is always ringing and there are always three conversations happening at once. The earnest enquiries, enthusiastic reminiscences and society anecdotes scream along at dazzling pace, impeded not a jot by the hosts having no idea who exactly their guests are. 'Hands Across the Sea' is a short play from the 'Tonight at 8.30' sequence, which was first produced at the Phoenix Theatre in London in 1936.

    'Hay Fever', first performed in 1925, tells the story of a busy weekend at a country house, where each member of the Bliss family has invited a guest to stay, without informing anyone else. All four guests are forced into close quarters with the four members of the host family, each one more eccentric than the last. Parlour games turn to rancour; romantic alliances split and reform with flippant ease. As Saturday evening climaxes into a clamour of melodrama, each of the invited guests begin to rue ever accepting an invitation from the inimitable Blisses.

    'Charles B. Cochran's Revue' was first presented by Charles B. Cochran at the London Pavilion, on 19 March 1931. It ran for just 27 performances. Although advertised as having 'Music by Noël Coward and others', it in fact had only five Coward numbers and only one of them could be considered as a semi-sketch.

    In 'Easy Virtue', John Whittaker brings home his new wife for the first time. Some years older than her husband, Larita is a woman of class, beauty and experience, with a worldview, we find, in stark contrast to the single-minded morality of her new sisters- and mother-in-law. At first a tense truce reigns, but after a summer of boredom and mental lassitude, Larita is confronted with the facts of her past: scandalous according to her outraged in-laws; but mere truth to Larita, who refuses to be brow-beaten into hypocrisy by the priggish social system of her new relations. 'Easy Virtue' was first performed in New York in 1926.

    'Fallen Angels' is a biting, hilarious comedy about the rivalry between two bored married women as they await the arrival of their exotic former lover. Dramatising female sexual desire and frustration, the play's first performances in 1925 outraged the critics, who proclaimed it to be shocking and obscene. But rather than insulting British womanhood (as its scandalised opponents asserted) Coward's sharp, entertaining script incisively draws attention to male sexual hypocrisy, while probing the vacuous lives of the play's privileged protagonists.

    'A Song at Twilight' is the first play in the trilogy, 'Suite in Three Keys', in which each play is set in the same Swiss hotel suite. It was written by Coward in 1966, and represents the last of his output for the stage before he died. An earnest moral drama, it concerns an ageing distinguished, petulant, bitchy and truculent writer who has managed to conceal his homosexuality from the world for decades at the cost of warping his talent and cutting off his human sympathies

    'Come Into the Garden Maud' is the final play in the trilogy, 'Suite in Three Keys', in which each play is set in the same Swiss hotel suite. It was written by Coward in 1966, and represents the last of his output for the stage before he died. Anna-Mary Conklin and her husband Verner are an exceedingly wealthy American couple and the stars of 'Come into the Garden Maud'. While Anna-Mary, a social-aspirant, is nervously throwing a dinner-party offstage to entertain a prince she wants to impress, Verner - who cares little for the niceties of society life - gets along very well with the aristocratic, but down-to-earth, Maud Caragnani - very well indeed

But as madeira is drunk, dressing-up boxes unearthed, songs sung, childhood memories re-discovered and the scandalous secrets of the will revealed, the gloom turns into what Coward described as 'a sly satire on Victorian hypocrisy'. 'Family Album' is a short play from the 'Tonight at 8.30' cycle, which was first produced at the Phoenix Theatre in London in 1936

An uncle privately promises each of his idle nieces and nephews that he will leave them his entire fortune if they make something of themselves. When he returns to London a year later, the lazy children, inspired by the promise of a grand inheritance, have become highly successful composers, writers, actors and prize-winners. But it is difficult to pin Uncle Daniel down on how exactly he made his money, and whether he really has 3 years to live before succumbing to an elusive malady

    Lulu is an attractive young mademoiselle whose lover, Philippe de Croze, is to join the army for active service. Fearing to leave his mistress, and her flighty nature, without chaperone for so long, de Croze asks his friend Marcel to look after his lover. But the close attention Marcel swears to pay doesn't go exactly to plan ... 'Look After Lulu!' is an adaptation of 'Occupe-toi d'Amélie' by the French farce-master Georges Feydeau. It was first performed on Broadway, then at the Royal Court Theatre, in London, before a West-End transfer to the New Theatre (now the Noe͏̈l Coward Theatre) in 1959

    'Nude with Violin', a light comedy of manners, is Coward's three act satire on 'modern art', criticism, artistic pretention and the value placed on art, set in Paris in 1954. The famous painter, Paul Sorodin, has died. His relatives and hangers-on converge on his studio, hopeful of financial gain, and are stunned to learn from his valet, Sebastien, that Sorodin has left a letter in which he admits that he never painted a picture in his life. The paintings of Sorodin's supposed three major periods turn out to have been executed by a choleric aristocrat, a jolly barmaid, and a Jamaican Seventh-day Adventist

He started producing sketches for some of the most famous revues of the period. Throughout his career, Coward wrote many sketches and playlets that were not part of one of the many revues to which he lent his name to great success. Those works are gathered here, arranged chronologically, from 'What Next', written in 1915 to 'Some other Private Lives' (a parody on Coward's own more famous work), written in 1930

    'Point Valaine' is a three act melodrama, written in 1934, set in the Caribbean. It is the story of what happens in a tropical hotel when love runs amuck. Stefan, an amorous, brutal waiter, is very much taken with the 40-year-old hotelier, Linda, who seems to object only slightly to his attentions. But one day she decides that a change of lovers will do her no harm and feels that she needs more than Stefan's brutal lust. Her affair with the young man has terrifying repercussions. Stefan becomes violent and alternately chokes and caresses Linda. Finally he cuts his own wrists and throws himself into the sea

    A lovingly cynical tribute to the music hall, 'Red Peppers' features a performing couple whose onstage choreography and off-stage marriage leave something to be desired, as they snap and scrap in a comic but sympathetic picture of variety show life. 'Red Peppers' is a short play from 'Tonight at 8.30', a sequence of ten plays to be performed by the same cast in sets of three, alternating matinées and evenings, ranging from farce to melodrama to romantic comedy. After touring, 'Tonight at 8.30' was produced at the Phoenix Theatre in London in 1936

    Miranda Frayle is an actress who has risen, she says, from poverty and cockney squalor to acquire a higher station in life: a station she intends to consolidate by her marriage to the wealthy Nigel Marshwood, son of Felicity, Countess of Marchwood. What Miranda does not know is that her future mother-in-law's maid, Moxie, is in fact Miranda's sister, a sister she was raised with not in squalor, but in bourgeois and ordinary surroundings in Sidcup. When Moxie hears Miranda romanticising and slandering her family, she cannot help but reveal the connection. An upstairs-downstairs satire of the complexities of snobbery and reverse snobbery, 'Relative Values' was first performed in November 1951 at the Savoy Theatre, London

    'Semi Monde' offers a wonderful view of a cross-section of high society. Set across three years in the Ritz Hotel in Paris, we see characters representative of 1920s' society 'jagged with sophistication ... either demi mondaine or just plain mondaine' as Coward himself put it. Although written in 1926 it was not until 1997 that it was first staged, by Glasgow Citizens Company
