UST to present ‘Hay Fever’

“Hay Fever,” Noel Coward’s comedic tale of a family wrought with self-absorption and self-induced drama comes to the Morgan Theatre stage on the Utah State University campus Dec. 2-4 and 8-11. Utah State Theatre will present the show at 7:30 p.m. nightly. Ticket information for the comedy is available at the Smith Spectrum Ticket Office, (435) 797-3046 or on the Web at www.usu.edu/theatre.

Noel Coward’s “Hay Fever” is a comedy of bad manners that starts with the arrival of four guests invited independently by different members of the Bliss family for a weekend at their country house. The guests are alternately amused, ignored, humiliated and ultimately abandoned to slink away by themselves during a blazing family row.

Directing the UST production is Adrianne Moore, faculty member at Utah State. According to the director, the piece should bring out some laughter during the holiday season.

Ticket prices for the production of “Hay Fever” range from $6 to $9. For general inquiries, call (435) 797-1500 or email gordonj@hass.usu.edu. Please, no children under the age of 6.
