This is the mistake we are all guilty of, and the one which Noel Coward's 'Design For Living' is attempting to ameliorate. The Publick Theatre, known for their outdoor summer theater, has moved inside for the winter with 'Design For Living,' Noel Coward's play based on the group dynamic between himself and his two closest friends, Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontanne, which opened at the Plaza Theatre at the Boston Center For the Arts this past Sunday. A witty comedy featuring snappy dialogue and unconventional ideas about marriage, 'Design For Living' explores the quintessential 'love-triangle,' one in which love flows freely between genders and equally among all three friends.
