About Present Laughter

Present Laughter is a 1981 English film directed by Rick Gardner and Alan Strachan. It runs 147 minutes. The cast is led by Donald Sinden, Dinah Sheridan and Gwen Watford.

Often regarded as semi-autobiographical, Present Laughter follows a few days in the life of successful and self-obsessed actor Garry Essendine as he prepares to travel for a touring commitment. Amid a series of events bordering on farce, Garry must deal with interruptions including the numerous women who want to seduce him, placating his long-suffering secretary Monica Reed, avoiding his estranged wife Liz Essendine, being confronted by a crazed young playwright, and overcoming his fear of his own approacing fortieth birthday and impending mid-life crisis.
