‎COWARD, Noel‎

‎To-Night at 8.30. Plays.‎

‎London: William Heinemann 1936. First editions first impressions signed by the playwright on the title pages of vols 1-2. The original production starred Noel Coward and Gertrude Lawrence and premiered on 9 January 1936 at the Phoenix Theatre London. This copy is from the theatre collection of Clive Hirschhorn b. 1940 who reviewed the collection in the Sunday Express and whose ownership inscriptions are pencilled on the front pastedowns dated 1988. Coward wrote these nine one-act plays to perform alongside Gertrude Lawrence. As Hirschhorn writes "though they did only two shows together - the superbly crafted Private Lives and Tonight At 8.30 - Coward's association with the 'imperishable' Gertie brought out the best in him and endures to this day". One of the plays Still Life was later adapted into the award-winning film Brief Encounter 1945. 3 vols octavo. Original blue boards spines lettered in gilt blue endpapers in vols 1 and 2. Spines faded discolouration to covers light foxing to edges and outer leaves toning to blue endpapers; jackets unclipped a few chips and creases abrasion to vol. 1 jacket rear panel generally bright: a very good set in like jackets. Clive Hirschhorn "Theatre" Sunday Express 8 December 1991. hardcover‎

‎Vol.1 Present Laughter & Vol.2 This Happy Breed : Both Copies Signed By Noel Coward And All The Cast : With A Loosely Inserted Advertising Handbill For The Two Plays‎

‎A 2 Vols. set : Both books are First UK printings and published by William Heinemann London in 1943. The books are signed by Noel Coward and all the cast : Joyce Carey and Judy Campbell on the initial blank and on the half-title: Gerald Case Beryl Measor Molly Johnson Billy Thatcher James Donald Dennis Price Gwen Floyd Meg Titheradge and also that of the Peggie Dear the stage manager. Loosely inserted is a rare advertising handbill flyer promoting the original West End production of these plays at the Theatre Royal Haymarket in London. Following a Provincial Tour 'Present Laughter' opened April 29th 1943 and 'This Happy Breed' opened April 30th 1943. Both productions played just over five months at the Haymarket Theatre. Both BOOKS are in Very Good or better condition. The wrapper has adhered in a very small area to the lower edge of the rear cover of 'Present Laughter'. A little toning and spotting to the text-blocks. Light offsetting to the blank end-papers with a little toning to the page edges due to the cheap quality of the war-time paper stock used. The WRAPPERS are in Very Good condition with a little edge-wear and some age related markings but are remarkable survivors. Both wrappers are protected in removable Brodart archival covers. Provenance: Matthew Bell 'Matt' props master whom the books were inscribed to by the author. In 2019 there was a revival stage production of 'Present Laughter at 'The Old Vic Theatre' for which Andrew Scott won the 'Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role in a Play'. A wonderful two volume set with such unique attributes. More images available on request. Ashton Rare Books welcomes direct contact. William Heinemann, London hardcover‎
