Hands Across The Sea (play)
''Hands Across the Sea'', described by the author as "a comedy of bad manners", is a one-act play by Noël Coward, one of ten that make up ''Tonight at 8.30'', a cycle written to be performed across three evenings. One-act plays were unfashionable in the 1920s and 30s, but Coward was fond of the genre and conceived the idea of a set of short pieces to be played across several evenings. The actress most closely associated with him was Gertrude Lawrence, and he wrote the plays as vehicles for them both. The play, widely seen as caricaturing Coward's friends Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife, Edwina, depicts an upper class couple and their haphazard and chaotic reception of guests in their drawing room. The play was first produced in 1935 in Manchester and then toured for nine weeks before opening in London (1936) and New York (1936–37). It has been revived occasionally and has been adapted for television and radio. Background and first productions Short plays had been popula ...

Hands Across The Sea (march)
"Hands Across the Sea" is an American military march composed by John Philip Sousa in 1899. History The march was written in 1899. When the march premiered the same year at the Academy of Music in Philadelphia, the audience insisted that it be repeated three times. The march is "addressed to no particular nation, but to all of America's friends abroad."Paul E. Bierley, The Works of John Philip Sousa' (1984), p. 60. In 1901, John Philip Sousa heard the Virginia Tech Regimental Band (The Highty-Tighties) playing "The Thunderer" at the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York. Sousa was so impressed that he dedicated a performance of his latest march, "Hands Across the Sea", to the band. Sousa prefaced the sheet music's score with a quotation from the English diplomat John Hookham Frere: "A sudden thought strikes me; let us swear eternal friendship."All Music Guide to Classical Music: The Definitive Guide to Classical Music' (Blackbeat, 2005: eds.
