Description Peter and Ellen Williams present.
Blithe Spirit is an original and unforgettable farce. Clever and as improbable as a play can be and still stay on the stage. Writer, Charles Condomine invites Madame Arcati to dinner, hoping to gain information on psychic phenomena. The unexpected materialism of his late, first wife's spirit creates disastrous repercussions for Charles and his second wife. The consequences for the audience, however, are most hilarious.
With Carmen Duncan; John Hamblin; Paula Duncan; June Salter is Madame Arcati.
