For hay fever, the allergy, see
Hay fever.Hay Fever is a comic play written by
Noel Coward in
1924 and first produced in
1925 with
Marie Tempest as the first Judith Bliss. Best described as a cross between high
farce and a
comedy of manners, the play is set in a British country house in the
1920s, and deals with the four eccentric members of the Bliss family and their outlandish behaviour when they each invite a guest to spend the weekend. The self-centred behaviour of the hosts finally drives their guests to flee while the Blisses are so engaged in a family row that they do not notice their guests' furtive departure.

Hay fever
Hay fever is caused by
pollens of specific seasonal plants and airborne chemicals and dust particles in people who are
allergic to these substances. It is characterised by sneezing, runny nose and itching eyes. This seasonal allergic
rhinitis is commonly known as 'hay fever', because it is most prevalent during
haying season. It is particularly prevalent from late May to the end of June (in the Northern Hemisphere). However it is possible to suffer from hayfever throughout the year
