The Rat Trap at Park Theatre: Marital difficulties

Host James Harvey is joined by the creative team behind a new reimagining of Coward's The Rat Trap (writer Bill Rosenfield, director Kirsty Patrick Ward and producer Ashley Cook) to talk married life, bitter arguments and rodent metaphors."In fashionable 1920s Belgravia, Sheila, a talented novelist, and Keld, an aspiring playwright, embark on married life. Both are fiercely ambitious, but when Keld’s career takes off and Sheila’s doesn’t, professional jealousy and an affair have a devastating effect on their marriage."We'll be back with regular episodes very soon - subscribe now!Get your RAT TRAP tickets here!ABOUT THE NOËL COWARD FOUNDATION⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Noël Coward Foundation⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ was set up as a charitable trust in 2000 by Graham Payn and Dany Dasto.
