The Vortex

About The Vortex:

The Vortex plays at Apollo - Shaftesbury Avenue
Shaftesbury Avenue, London, W1V 7DH


Sir Peter Hall’s new production of Noël Coward’s 1924 play The Vortex, starring Felicity Kendal and Dan Stevens. Coward’s savage portrayal of 1920s cocktail society centres on the tempestuous relationship between glamorous socialite Florence Lancaster (Kendal) and her hedonistic musician son Nicky (Stevens), whose new girlfriend is wooed by Florence’s toyboy lover. Drug abuse, emotional blackmail and shattered relationships are minutely observed in this disturbing early piece from a playwright whose sharp eye was more usually turned towards the light. London audiences were shocked when then play premiered in 1924, and the crisis of identity and purpose felt by the Lancaster family has lost none of its impact over the interceding 84 years. This production is suitable for theatregoers aged 11 and older.
