Noel Coward's "Private Lives" runs July 6-10 at UW

The University of Wyoming's 2010 Snowy Range Summer Theatre season closes with "Private Lives," Noel Coward's classic comedy about the people we can't live with -- or without.

Directed by Lee Hodgson, "Private Lives" runs July 6-10 at 7:30 p.m. in the Fine Arts Center Studio Theatre. Tickets cost $10 for the public, $8 for seniors and $5 for students. For tickets call (307) 766-6666 or go online at www.uwyo.edu/finearts

Coward was one of the most prominent British playwrights of the 20th century. Written in 1930, "Private Lives" is Coward's most enduringly successful work, still a standard of theatres everywhere.

"This play is the stuff of legend, a major classic, and one of those real favorites of many people," notes director Hodgson.
