Synopsis: Called one of the most sophisticated, entertaining plays ever written, Noel Coward’s “Private Lives” is a 1930s comedy of manners. A divorced couple who, while honeymooning with their new spouses, discover that they are staying in adjacent rooms at the same hotel. Despite a perpetually stormy relationship, they realize that they still have feelings for each other. ​

Characters:

​

Sibyl Chase: An attractive first-time bride who feels very threatened by her new husband’s first wife, Amanda.

​

Amanda Prynne: A beautiful second-time bride (she was formerly married to Elyot, and is now married to Victor) with a fiery temper and a tendency toward impulsive behavior.

​
