October 18 through December 23, 2007 Written as a vehicle for Coward's own acting talents alongside his frequent stage partner Gertrude Lawrence, Tonight at 8:30 is Coward's ambitious series of ten one-act plays which saw him breathe new life into the one-act form. First performed in London in 1936, the plays perfectly showcase Coward's talents as a playwright, providing a sparkling, fast-paced and remarkably varied selection of theatrical gems.   Directors: William LUDEL, Michael MURRAY, Stephanie SHROYER, Stefan NOVINSKI, Robert GOLDSBY, Brendon FOX Assistant Directors: Danielle HAMRICK, Lilach COHEN Scenic: John IACOVELLI Key Set Design: Adam FLEMMING, Scott MOSES Costumes: A.
