Private Lives to Solomon Isaacs 04/19/12

This was my third time seeing the great play “Private Lives” by  Noël Coward.  First London, then NYC and now here in Orlando!

I had never been to Mad Cow Theatre and enjoyed being so very close the cast.  The entire production was “spot on” as a Brit might say but the leading lady in the role of Amanda kinda stole the show for me. It was topped off when I figured out that she tweeted. You know that gets her extra points!

Private Lives is directed by Timothy Williams. The cast includes Sarah Jane Fridlich as Sibyl, Philip Nolen as Elyot, Jennifer Christa Palmer as Amanda and Kevin Zepf as Victor.

Private Lives plays Thursdays – Sundays, March 30 – April 29, 2012.
Tickets are $32 and $30 for seniors/students with ID.
Special Monday Night performances on April 23 at 7:30p – all tickets are $15.
Tickets may be purchased by calling the Mad Cow Theatre Box Office at 407.297.8788 or online at www.madcowtheatre.com

Wait – Don’t go yet—

Top quotes –

“It’s a pity you didn’t have a little more brandy. It might have made you more agreeable!”

” I think very few people are completely normal really, deep down in their private lives.”

Victor Prynne: It’s no use feeling sorry for yourself.

Amanda: I seem to be the only one who does, I might as well enjoy it.

“Certain women should be struck

regularly, like gongs.”

 

(find someone to read this with you- really!)

Amanda: Whose yacht is that?


Amanda: I wish I were on it.Elyot: The Duke of Westminster’s I expect. It always is.

Elyot: I wish you were too.

Amanda: There’s no need to be nasty.

Elyot: Yes, there is every need. I’ve never in my life felt a greater urge to be nasty.
