Blithe Spirit

27 Sep - 05 Oct 24 | The Judi Dench Playhouse

Charles and Ruth hold hands but the ghost of Elvira has captuerd his attention
Robert Vass


A Questors Production

Blithe Spirit

by Noël Coward

A Spirited Comedy of Love and the Afterlife!

Seeking inspiration for his new novel, Charles Condomine invites eccentric Madame Arcati to perform a séance at his home. Despite the group’s cynicism at the spiritualist’s theatrics, she accidentally manages to summon Charles’ deceased first wife Elvira, much to the annoyance of his current wife, Ruth.

Even though only Charles can see and hear the spirit of Elvira, she finds ways to make her presence felt and show her contempt for her rival Ruth. As all three personalities clash, the supernatural love triangle leads to disastrous consequences.

A hilarious farce by the master of sophisticated comedy, Noël Coward. Blithe Spirit is not only Coward’s most popular play but one of the most enduring stage works of the 20th Century and was made famous by the 1945 film starring Rex Harrison and Margaret Rutherford.

“Stylistically, it is Coward's masterpiece” The Times
