Exhibition Opening Date Announced

It has just been announced that Noël Coward: Art & Style, which celebrates Noël Coward’s life and work, will open on 14 June at Guildhall Art Gallery.

The free exhibition, originally scheduled to open in summer 2020 to mark the 100th anniversary of Coward’s West End debut as a playwright, brings a wealth of dazzling visuals and effervescent wit to London as the capital emerges from lockdown.

Art & Style vividly demonstrates the pivotal role that art and style played in Coward’s life on- and off-stage, the enormous impact that he had upon the fashion and culture of his time, and how his visual legacy and influence continues to resonate to this day. 

The exhibition, which will run until 23 December, brings together rarely seen original artwork and costumes, photographs, documents, three-dimensional objects, audio and video to tell the story, all in a theatrically immersive environment true to Coward’s spirit. 

Tickets for Noël Coward: Art & Style are free, but must be booked in advance - and for specific visitor time slots - at www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/noelcoward
