Buffalo Theatre Ensemble (BTE) presents Noël Coward’s quintessential comedy of manners, “Private Lives” directed by Ensemble member Amelia Barrett May 5 - 29 at the McAninch Arts Center at College of DuPage, 425 Fawell Blvd., Glen Ellyn, Ill. “Private Lives,” featuring Ensemble member Robert Jordan Bailey, is sophisticated, elegant and quintessential Coward. Set in 1929, it introduces us to long-divorced Amanda and Elyot, who meet again on the eve of each other’s honeymoons with their new spouses, where they confirm their fear – they are still deeply in love with one another. A passionate, volatile tale of kindred souls – those who can’t live with one another, nor without – it is a ridiculous, sentimental and very funny romp. Tickets are range from $23 to $33.
