Play of the Month: Noël Coward's Design for Living

on BBC One London

starring
LEO: 'The actual facts are so simple. I love you. You love me. You love Otto. I love Otto. Otto loves you. Otto loves me.'
Coward's play about Gilda's calamitous attempts to share her love with two men while marrying a third, met a shocked reaction when first produced in 1933. It remains his most advanced and also his most intimately revealing play.
