National Theatre Live screening of Noël Coward's comedy 'Hay Fever', directed by Emily Burns and starring Christine Baranski and Richard E. Grant, at Storyhouse Cinema.
Storyhouse Cinema is bringing Hay Fever to Chester from 14 to 17 January, a National Theatre Live screening of Noël Coward's comedy. It's part of their 'Stage & Exhibition on Screen' programme, which brings theatre performances and exhibitions into the city centre rather than you having to travel to London for them.
Coward's Hay Fever is a classic of the British stage, a comedy of manners set in a country house where the family are all far more interested in their own theatrical antics than in the guests they've invited. This production is directed by Emily Burns and stars Christine Baranski and Richard E. Grant, so you've got two heavyweights leading the cast. The screening brings the whole performance to the big screen, with the National Theatre's stage work captured for the cinema.
Storyhouse is Chester's only independent cinema, and it runs a broad mix: independent and international releases alongside blockbusters, cult classics, restorations, documentaries and family favourites. This screening sits within the 'Stage & Exhibition on Screen' strand, which is their way of bringing theatre and gallery work to the city. They also run a range of access-friendly screenings, including audio described, captioned and relaxed showings, and work with community partnerships.
