Head down to Fletcher Moss Botanical Garden for Heartbreak Productions’ open-air performance of Noel Coward’s brilliant comedy of manners, Private Lives.

Private Lives is a sparkling comedy about two honeymooning couples who find themselves in hotel rooms next door to their ex-partners.

This farcical comedy by Noel Coward and adapted by Heartbreak for the outdoor stage is full of sharp wit and punchy one-liners.

Bring your own chair or blanket, and pack a picnic, for this wonderful outdoor performance.
