About The Production: From the New York Times review, "In the unlikely event that you stop laughing and start thinking at the sparkling new Broadway revival of ''Hay Fever,'' you may notice that Noel Coward's comedy has skin-deep characters, little plot, no emotional weight or redeeming social value and very few lines that sound funny out of context. All of which goes to show that some plays defy the laws of theatrical gravity. In this now 60-year-old jape, Coward demonstrates that pure fluff also rises: ''Hay Fever'' is a classic spun out of the thinnest and most dizzying of air.

Or so it seems when placed in the adoring hands of the dream Anglo-American cast that the director Brian Murray has assembled at the Music Box. No rendition of this play - or perhaps any play - can go seriously astray when the radiant Rosemary Harris is at center stage. But this production has so much talent to spare that actors of the lustrous caliber of Roy Dotrice and Barbara Bryne can be found in relatively minor roles. Simple as this evening's recipe may seem - sound script, thoroughly assured (though by no means ''all star'') cast, knowing director - it is not one frequently encountered on today's Broadway. Our commercial producers would do well to study the example of this ''Hay Fever,'' provided the public will spare them some seats."
