Play review - "Song at Twilight" by Noel Coward (1966)

 Also known as "The last good Coward play". I haven't read enough of his works to vouch for that but it was well received. Yes because he was in it but also this has guts. It's about an old author visited by an old love. She's had face lifts, they bitch and snipe, she calls him on being gay, and he cops to it. Which was Coward being honest. The author's wife knowing it and accepting it - that felt true too. 

It's an honest, tough, funny, bitchy play.
