Synopsis

At the end of Noel Coward's Design for Living, two men and a woman embark on a menage a trois founded on mutual attraction and a conscious flouting of societal norms.

This witty and warm hearted comedy continues their story.

It is 1985.

Orson Woodley and Sir Lewis Messenger share a house in the West Indies, their beloved Giselle having died some years before.

Their peaceful lives are turned upside down when Olga, Giselle's daughter, arrives determined to find out which of them is her father.

Olga's daughter, a spitting image of Giselle, stirs further memories in a funny and moving exploration of this unusual family's history.

The lightness of touch and sureness of characterization would even please Coward."
