Fallen Angels on Broadway Sizzles as O’Hara and Byrne Shine

Broadway revives Noël Coward’s Fallen Angels in a one‑act comedy at the Todd Haimes Theatre, led by Kelli O’Hara and Rose Byrne whose intoxicating charm and sharp timing anchor the production, with Mark Consuelos as the Frenchman and Aasif Mandvi and Christopher Fitzgerald as the confused husbands; Tracee Chimo supplies sly maid wit. Directed by Scott Ellis, the revival emphasizes Coward’s flirtatious humor and 1920s social insecurities, delivering a lively evening powered by the two leads’ chemistry and comic abilities.

Boozy Brilliance: Byrne and O’Hara Sparkle in Fallen Angels

Variety’s review applauds Rose Byrne and Kelli O’Hara for their physical-comedy chemistry in the Noël Coward revival Fallen Angels, delivering moments of buoyant humor that lift the show mid‑performance. While the Roundabout Theatre production is stylish and benefits from strong leads, the play is deemed one of Coward’s lesser works, with an exposition-heavy start and underdeveloped supporting roles, though director Scott Ellis and the chic Deco set help it glide along for the 90 minutes.
