Noel Coward at the Rose Theatre, Kingston

INTERVIEW: STEPHEN UNWIN

The artistic director of the Rose Theatre in Kingston talks to Aleks Sierz about his well-received revival of Noel Coward’s 1925 play, Hay Fever, and about his experience of running a large venue with no Arts Council grant. Recorded at the Rose.

I believe in uncovering the specific nature of a play’s historical moment, and then finding the energy realised through that understanding.
