Description

Noël Coward, the incomparable composer, lyricist, and playwright of impeccable style and sophistication, understood the human heart and the timeless, bittersweet joys of love as no one else could. A Marvelous Party! is an evening of ravishing melody and witty repartee featuring A.R.T.’s multi-talented acting company. Drawn from Coward’s songs, plays, and journals, this effervescent revue is a true summer sparkler, a lighthearted romp featuring 33 tunes and a bevy of sketches, anecdotes, writings and musings. Songs include "Mad About the Boy,” "I'll Follow My Heart," "I Like America," "Room With a View," "The Stately Homes of England," "Mad Dogs and Englishmen," "I've Been to a Marvelous Party" and "There Are Bad Times Just Around the Corner;" as well as Coward's skewering of stage mothers, "Mrs. Worthington," and his lovingly caustic reworking of the lyrics in Cole Porter's "Let's Do It."
