Repeating over and over the same joke -it can hardly be termed satire-Nude With Violin can scarcely help growing wearisome. What is worse, the play is at no point notably gay. Actor Coward is by all odds Playwright Coward's greatest asset; and as a special gentleman's gentleman-or rascal's rascal-he is perfectly placed for the goofy badinage, studied insolences, posh billingsgate and pecks that leave tooth marks which are Coward's forte.
