Sparkling, dizzying, and deliciously potent, Fallen
Angels, Noël Coward’s champagne-fresh comedy of bad manners, shocked
and delighted audiences at its 1925 premiere. Two upper-class wives, their
husbands away for the day, share a few toasts to their pre-marital
dalliances—with the same man, who just may be en route from France to
visit. Old rivalries and past scandals bubble to the surface in this
intoxicating romp from one of theatre’s comedy masters.
Starring Golden Globe-winner Rose Byrne (If I Had
Legs I’d Kick You) and Tony Award winner Kelli O’Hara (The King
and I), with Tracee Chimo, Mark Consuelos (making his
Broadway debut), Christopher Fitzgerald and Aasif Mandvi, this
new Roundabout Theatre and Tony Award-winning production of ‘pure escapist fun’
(The New York Times) was filmed live on stage at Broadway’s Todd Haimes
Theatre and now comes to the big screen.
