Patricia Connolly, Barry Day, Edward Hibbert, Dana Ivey, and Steve Ross will participate in Private Lives Revealed: The Letters of Noel Coward, an evening of readings from Coward’s personal and professional correspondences with some of the most fascinating personalities of his time, to be held at St. Ann’s Warehouse, on Monday, December 7 at 7pm.

The event is being presented in conjunction with St. Ann’s presentation of Coward’s Brief Encounter, adapted and directed by Emmar Rice, which runs December 2-January 3, with an opening on December 8. The piece draws from Coward’s original one-act, Still Life, as well as David Lean’s 1946 film Brief Encounter.

Associated events will also include a post-show discussion with Rice and the show’s creators on December 3 and a post-show panel discussion entitled “Acting Noël Coward” on December 13, which will feature a group of actors who have performed Coward’s works, including Broadway veterans and the cast of Brief Encounter.
