Private Lives (4.0/5)
(by Noel Coward. Staring Kim Cattrall, Matthew MacFayden)
Vaudeville Theatre, London
6th March 2010
Kim Cattrall is superb as the honeymooning wife who discovers her ex. and his new wife in the next room. A comedy of manners unfolds as the ex’s renew their passion with observations on life as topical today as in 1930. Cattrall totally inhabits both the character and period, as do the supporting actors playing the two ex’s new partners. MacFayden is too much today’s man, but this does not detract from an enjoyable production.
