Show Pics: Coward’s dormant Volcano smoulders on stage
Production photos have been released for Noel Coward’s recently re-discovered Volcano, which opens at the Vaudeville Theatre tonight (16 August 2012, previews from 14 August).
Inspired by an affair between Coward’s friend Ian Fleming (author of the Bond novels) and a plantation-owning society beauty, it gives a “fascinating insight into the decadent, scandal-ridden lifestyle” that Coward and his fellow ex-pats enjoyed.
Starring Jenny Seagrove, Jason Durr and Dawn Steele, Volcano runs at the Vaudeville Theatre until 9 September.
