by Noël Coward
Directed by James Shawcross
"Till death do us part was only the beginning."
Prepare for a performance of sparkling wit, supernatural mischief, and ghostly chaos in Noël Coward’s classic comedy Blithe Spirit. When novelist Charles Condomine invites the eccentric medium Madame Arcati to conduct a séance as research for his new book, he gets far more than he bargained for - the ghost of his first wife, Elvira, returns from the beyond! Much to the dismay of his very-much-alive second wife, Ruth, Elvira isn’t planning to leave quietly.
As séances spiral out of control and tempers rise from both sides of the grave, Blithe Spirit delivers Coward’s trademark blend of razor-sharp dialogue, irresistible charm, and farcical mayhem. A timeless comedy of manners turned otherworldly, this delightful play proves that marriage - and the afterlife - can be murderously funny.
This amateur production of “Blithe Spirit” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
