GOLDENHURST LunEch wnith cJuoliaun Cnlatry eatr Geodldenhurst and a review of his recently-published novel ‘Briefs Encountered’. Noël Coward at ‘Look Out’ - Firefly, Jamaica PRODUCED AND PUBLISHED BY THE INTERNATIONAL NOËL COWARD SOCIETY - 1- www.noëlcoward.net hat an amazing month March was! Apart from reasonable weather, two of the most significant events for me marked an early opening of Spring EDITORIAL long before an Easter chick was a wink in a cockerel’s eye. Out of the blue came a charming invitation from Julian Clary for the officers of the Society to visit The Old Manor - but forever Goldenhurst in the eye of the Coward faithful - for lunch and a celebration of the completed renovation of Noël’s country retreat in Kent and the publication of Julian’s novel Briefs Encountered. As Daniel Massey said once about an invitation to Noël’s for lunch, “Well, you don’t turn that down!” And we didn’t! More on the visit in this edition. The climax of the month was the opening of Star Quality - The World of Noël Coward at the Lincoln Center in New York. This exhibition has been rightly trumpeted in Home Chat for the past few editions and the result did not let the herald down. This really is an impressive achievement. As a result of an initial partnership between the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts (NYPL) and The Noël Coward Foundation (NCF) the idea was born - and together with other partners - the exhibition was created.

Built in 1926- 27, the Alvin was one of the relatively small number of post-World War I theaters built mt by the Shubert or Chanin organizations, but rather for a special client. The Alvin was designed by prolific theater architect Herbert J. Krapp to house the productions and the offices of producers Alex Aarons and Vinton Freedley, fran whose abbreviated first names the acronym "Alvin" was created. Herbert J. Krapp was the most prolific architect of the Broadway theater district. Having worked in the offices of Herts & Tallant, premier theater designers of the pre-war period, Krapp went on to design theaters for the two major builders of the post-war era, the Shubert and Chanin organizations.
