Private Lives

''Private Lives'' by Noël Coward was first performed and published in 1930, now pubic domain. It is a comedy of manners in three acts and concerns a divorced couple who, while honeymooning with their new spouses, discover that they are staying in adjacent rooms at the same hotel. Despite a perpetually stormy relationship, they realise that they still have feelings for each other. Its second-act love scene was nearly censored in Britain as too risqué.
