Blithe Spirit

by Noel Coward June 2009

Blithe Spirit Poster

A spooky hair raising comedy! When Charles Condomine and his wife Ruth hire the services of the eccentric Madame Arcati, they think they’re in for an evening of high jinks rather than high spirits – but when the madcap mystic accidentally brings Charles’s ex-wife Elvira back from the beyond, it all starts to go bump in the night. As both women battle for his mortal soul, Charles finds himself wanted dead or alive in this comic masterpiece. Coward playfully speculates as to what would happen if a wife seven years dead got summoned back to the living-room of her since-remarried husband! He delivers the pert answer: a giddily demented domestic hell would break loose!
