About The Stars

Baranski has spent decades playing sharp, commanding women across stage and screen. Audiences will know her as the scene-stealing Tanya in Mamma Mia! and its sequel, as well as for her performances in The Good Wife and The Good Fight. On stage, she's also a Tony Award winner for The Real Thing and Rumours. 

Richard E. Grant, an Oscar-nominated actor known for his wide-ranging career across film, television and theatre, earned his Academy Award nomination for Can You Ever Forgive Me?. He's also well known for roles in Withnail and I, Gosford Park, Saltburn, and numerous stage performances.

What's The Story?

Set in an English country house in the summer of 1923, Hay Fever follows the eccentric Bliss family, who each independently invite guests for the same weekend - without telling one another. What follows is a weekend of overlapping visitors, bruised egos and increasingly bizarre social interactions.
