Blithe Spirit

by Noël Coward

March 2 - 20

Fuddy-duddy novelist Charles Condomine suffers a marital crisis of comedic proportions when an eccentric psychic summons the ghost of his hot-tempered first wife, Elvira, who will stop at nothing to end his current marriage…or his life. Noël Coward's spirited supernatural classic is British wit at its best.
