Blithe Spirit

Regional
Comedy


SYNOPSIS:

A theatre-lovers’ favourite ever since it was written, Blithe Spirit is a tug-of-love comedy with a difference: one of the lovers is a ghost. Novelist Charles, hoping to gather material for his next book, asks Madame Arcati (one of the great characters in all of theatre) to conduct a séance in his house. It works too well: his first wife returns from the other side, with predictably disastrous results for his second marriage. Noël Coward at his deadliest.



Directed by Mike Payette

Featuring David Adams, Damien Atkins, Julia Course, Katherine Gauthier, Deborah Hay, Donna Soares, Jenny L. Wright
