From love and heartbreak to farce via drama, the Ways of the Heart threesome demonstrates the full range of Coward's genius. In The Astonished Heart, a patient's obsessive love of her psychiatrist provokes disturbing results. In Family Album, after their father's funeral, when the family gathers and the wine appears, family truths are finally revealed. And in Ways and Means, when a couple's luck seems to have run out, they find it again with style and grace on the French Riviera.
