Tracy-Ann Oberman is to star in a new production of Noel Coward's Present Laughter, at Chichester Festival Theatre.
The actress - and former JC columnist - had a huge success at Chichester last year, when she starred as Golde in Fiddler on the Roof. Now she is to join Rufus Hound in the comedy - which is seen as Coward's most autobiographical play. Oberman will play Monica.
Always wanted to tackle a Noel Coward. See you on the green @RufusHound ❤️ https://t.co/efMhlsu9LH
The new season will also feature Matt Lucas, who is making his Chichester debut in a new production of Me and My Girl. The comedian will appear alongside Caroline Quentin in the musical.
