Hay Fever and the Vortex
4040 Twiggs Street, San Diego, 92110
Cygnet Theatre's "double bill" of early Noel Coward plays is a mixed bag. The Vortex (1924) is his least-produced show. With good reason. What shocked then, sex and drug addiction, now plays heavy-handed. It's only calling card, aside from intriguing comparisons with Hay Fever: Rosina Reynolds' superb performance as Florence Lancaster. Compared to Vortex, Hay Fever's a bright, sunshiny day. The Bliss family rules their roost and shocked visitors. This production's fun, although the overdone acting could benefit from a lighter attack. The plays run in repertory. Check the theater for days and times. Worth a try.
