An opera adaptation of Noël Coward’s Still Life and his screenplay for the 1945 film Brief Encounter.
Set between early autumn of 1953 and late spring of 1954, fashion designer Coco Chanel, after fifteen years of retirement, decides to return to the world of haute couture and reopen her Paris salon. With her new collection derided by the critics, she faces bankruptcy until buyers from four major American department stores - Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdale's, Best & Company, and Ohrbach's - place orders with her. She becomes involved with the love life of one of her models, and flashbacks utilizing filmed sequences recall her own past romantic flings. Adding humor to the proceedings is a highly stereotypical rude gay designer who tries to impede Chanel's success. The finale is a fashion show featuring actual Chanel designs from 1918 to 1959.
In 1890s Vienna, Fritz begins an affair with seamstress Christine after an upper-class lover leaves him, but a duel challenge from her husband makes the relationship a final romance. Stoppard moves the ending backstage at the opera, where Christine learns Fritz has died.
Alexander Ivanov, a Soviet dissident, is confined to a mental hospital until he admits that his political statements arose from an illness. He shares a cell with a genuinely disturbed patient who imagines he commands a symphony orchestra, while Alexander's son is pressured at school to accept the false diagnosis.
The Good Companions is a musical with a book by Ronald Harwood, music by André Previn, and lyrics by Johnny Mercer. It is based on the 1929 novel of the same title by J. B. Priestley.
