HAY FEVER
Mariemont Players
March 4-20
Walton Creek Theater [Mariemont]

Directed by jef brown

Cast: Kenny Tessel as David Bliss, Barbara Karol as Judith Bliss, Mitch Worden as Simon Bliss, Elizabeth Beatty as Sorel Bliss, Lon Nease as Richard Greatham, Jeanette Tacon as Myra Arundell, Bryce Willson as Sandy Tyrell, Darcy Schwass as Jackie Coryton & Jan Costello as Clara

Unconventional, risqué, and often downright rude, the Blisses are everything an upper-crust English family should not be. This is made abundantly clear when each family member invites a guest for the weekend. Alliances form, affairs begin, and formality is thrown to the wind. Noel Coward’s perfect comedy will send you home laughing.
