"Dubbed "the master" for his abilities as a playwright, lyricist, arranger, director, singer-actor, short-story writer and attempted novelist, Coward's work is distinguished by his occasionally wicked with and penchant for satire. Coward's genius especially shone in his own performances of works for musical comedy... If you ever have a need to feel just a little bit superior, Coward is the man to turn to." Bay Area Reporter

As a comic genius and purveyor of his own unique brand of sarcastic wit Coward, playwright, singing-actor, novelist, short-story writer, composer-lyricist, director film-star and all-round 'Man of the Theatre' is now viewed in the tradition of Congreve, Goldsmith, Sheridan, Wilde and Shaw. And Coward excelled his predecessors in one vital aspect: he combined his clever lyrics with a brilliantly piquant and economically tuneful music, alternately sentimental and pithily eloquent, which has endeared him to successive generations of admirers.
