A Short Visit
Only draws from several areas of Noel Coward's life: it features his
songs and verse as well as drawing from his diary and biographical
writings. The title and theme of the show is taken from a verse of
the same name in "Not Yet the Dodo," Coward's collection of verse
published in 1968, five years before his death.
The songs
in the show include well known Coward standards such as "Mrs. Worthington"
"Mad Dogs and Englishmen," "I Went To A Marvelous Party," and "I'll
Follow My Secret Heart," as well as lesser performed numbers: Coward's
version of Cole Porter's "Let's Do It," "Matelot," "That Is The End
Of The News," and "I Travel Alone."
