SUITE IN THREE KEYS

About the show

In a luxury Swiss hotel suite in the 1960s, three separate stories unfold: A Song at Twilight is a full-length play about a famous writer, reputedly based on Somerset Maugham, who faces blackmail at the hands of an ex-lover threatening to expose his secret past. Shadows of the Evening and Come into the Garden, Maud form a perfect double-bill set in the same hotel suite. Shadows of the Eveningexplores the intricacies of a love triangle, and Come into the Garden, Maud is a fizzing comedy about the misunderstandings between Americans and Europeans abroad. Suite in Three Keys features a superlative cast – Stephen Boxer, Emma Fielding, Tara Fitzgerald and Steffan Rizzi – performing in both A Song at Twilight and the double bill of Shadows of the Evening and Come into the Garden, Maud. Marking the 50th anniversary of Noël Coward’s death and the 125th of his birth in nearby Teddington, this is the first complete revival of Suite in Three Keys for a generation. Choose between the full-length A Song at Twilight or the double-bill of Shadows of the Evening and Come into the Garden, Maud – or see all three plays in a single day to celebrate Coward’s glittering career (see schedule below for days on which you can see all three plays).
