Waiting in the Wings

by Noel Coward

In his 50th production, playwright Noel Coward chronicles the story of Lotta Bainbridge, a once-acclaimed performer now in her twilight years, as she moves into a charity retirement home for actresses known only to the locals as “The Wings.” It is there she rekindles an old feud with her rival, May Davenport, as the two come to terms with past indiscretions and present indignities in their lives’ final acts—one last curtain call for two deserving divas.
