<em><span style="font-family:Verdana,sans-serif">Hay Fever</span></em> is
a wonderful cross between high farce and an English comedy of bad manners. The
play is set in an English country house in the <span class="gmail-scayt-misspell-word1"><span>1920s</span></span>,
and deals with the four eccentric members of the Bliss family and their
outlandish behavior when they each invite a guest to spend the weekend. Each –
unbeknownst to the rest – invites down a house guest for a quiet weekend! The
self-centered behavior of the hosts finally drives their guests to flee, while
the <span class="gmail-scayt-misspell-word1"><span>Blisses</span></span>
are so engaged in a family row that they do not notice their guests' furtive
departure.<span></span></span></p>

the comfortable English country house of the Bliss family. Judith, the mother,
is a retired stage actress; David, the father, is a novelist. Their grown
children, Simon and <span class="gmail-scayt-misspell-word1"><span>Sorel</span></span>, still live at home. As the play
opens, Simon and <span class="gmail-scayt-misspell-word1"><span>Sorel</span></span> are exchanging insults about mutual
friends and speculating that their mother is up to something in inviting a

weekend.<span></span></span></p>
