Sparkling, dizzying and deliciously potent, “Fallen Angels,” Noël Coward’s champagne-fresh comedy of bad manners, shocked and delighted audiences at its 1925 premiere. Two upper-class wives, their husbands away for the day, share a few toasts to their premarital dalliances — with the same man, who just may be en route from France to visit. Old rivalries and past scandals bubble to the surface in this intoxicating romp from one of theater’s comedy masters. Nominated for five Tony Awards®, this acclaimed revival of “Fallen Angels” by the Roundabout Theatre Company was filmed live on stage at Broadway’s Todd Haimes Theatre. The stellar cast includes Rose Byrne, Kelli O’Hara, Tracee Chimo, Mark Consuelos (making his Broadway debut), Christopher Fitzgerald and Aasif Mandvi, with critics and theater fans alike praising the outstanding performances of the ensemble. This new production, directed by Scott Ellis (“Art,” “Pirates! The Penzance Musical,” “Take Me Out”), features a beautifully lavish Art-Deco set and stunning costumes that won Jeff Mahshie a Tony Award® for Best Costume Design in a Play. Directed by Scott Ellis. Written by Noël Coward, with additional material by Claudia Shear. 110 min. NOT RATED
