About

Get ready for a night of laughter and intrigue at the Shaftesbury Theatre! Join us for the delightful play Blithe Spirit ,a comedy sensation that has captivated audiences in London and New York alike.

Written by Nol Coward - the brilliant playwright of Private Lives , this classic tale follows the quirky and cantankerous novelist Charles Condomine. After remarrying, he finds himself hilariously haunted by the ghost of his late first wife, Elvira. With her clever wit and keen awareness of Charles' shortcomings, Elvira makes a grand entrance thanks to the eccentric and whimsical Madame Arcati, a visiting "happy medium."

As personalities clash and chaos ensues, the plot thickens when Charles' current wife, Ruth, meets an unexpected fate and joins Elvira in the afterlife. Together, these two mischievous spirits make it their mission to haunt Charles for eternity!

Dont miss this enchanting blend of humour and the supernatural. Grab your tickets now for an unforgettable evening of comedy that will leave you in stitches!

Written by Nol Coward
Directed by Chris Matanl-Mockridge
