Matinee idol Garry Essendine is charming, hedonistic, and notorious for affairs his wife largely tolerates—until he strays too close to home. As he prepares to tour Africa, his indiscretions unravel and chaos erupts. Noël Coward’s Present Laughter portrays privileged lives facing dramatic social change during the Second World War. Directed by Clelia Cardano Sheppard.
