Felicity Kendal's 'Hay Fever' to launch on West End

London: The Felicity Kendal-starring play Hay Fever is transferring to London's West End.

The Noel Coward-written production - directed by Lindsay Posner - had a sell-out run at Theatre Royal Bath last summer before going on a tour of Australia. It will now return to the stages of the UK for a limited run, reported Digital Spy.

Kendal plays Judith, a former star of the London stage and member of the Bliss family who struggles for the spotlight in her house with David, her egocentric novelist of a husband and their two grown children Sorel and Simon.

Chaos ensues when each member of the family invites a guest to stay at their rural retreat, with the visitors thrown into the family's dramas. What follows is described as "misjudged meetings, secret seductions and scandalous revelations during one outrageous weekend in Berkshire". Further casting will be announced soon.
