From the day actor John Gielgud understudied Noel Coward in The Vortex (1925) they were the best of friends. In Johnny G. & Noel C. Johnny (Veteran stage actor Paxton Whitehead) and Noël (actor Simon Jones) reminisce about the lives they led, the people they knew, and the plays they had in common. The radiant Rosemary Harris plays their leading ladies, from Amanda in Private Lives to Beatrice in Much Ado to the Mother Superior she played opposite Johnny in his last stage performance in a play called Best of Friends. And cabaret favorite Steve Ross sheds lyrical light on Johnny and Noël's joint contribution to musical theater! Devised and written by Barry Day as a tribute to the Gielgud centenary.

Program generously supported by the Elizabeth F. Cheney Foundation.
