“We were so ridiculously over in love.

Funny, wasn’t it?

Horribly funny.”

Private Lives

THE ARCHIVE · 2025 UK TOUR
First performed 13 June 2025

Glamorous, rich, reckless, and divorced.

Elyot and Amanda once shared a passionate marriage and a notoriously explosive breakup. When fate reunites them on adjoining hotel balconies, old flames reignite with ferocious speed and their new marriages descend into glorious comic chaos.

Following performances in Tunbridge Wells, the Isle of Wight, Canterbury, Southwick, Chandlers Ford and Broadstairs, Dionysus brought Noël Coward’s timeless comedy of manners to audiences across the South of England.

Robert Tremayne — Elyot Chase
