Philadelphia's Walnut Street Theatre continues its 206th season with Bob Carlton's production of Noël Coward’s classic comedy Private Lives, running from January 13-March 1. Opening night is set for January 21.

The four-character comedy, which premiered in 1930, follows Elyot and Amanda, a glamorous pair of divorcés who meet again on adjoining hotel balconies as they honeymoon with new spouses. Soon their romantic feelings are rekindled, without a care in the world for their respective partners.

Featured in the Walnut Street company are Greg Wood as Elyot Chase, Kathleen Wallace as Amanda Prynne, Dan Hodge as Victor Prynne, and Lauren Sowa as Sybil Chase.

Featured on the creative team are Robert Koharchik (scenic design), Mark Mariani (costume design), Elizabeth Atkinson (sound design), and Stuart Drake (lighting design).
