Blithe Spirit

Socialite and novelist Charles Condomine is preparing to write his next bestseller, The Unseen, and to assist him with the creation of a 'professional charlatan' character, he has invited local medium, Madam Arcati, to dinner, and to conduct a séance.

However, things do not go as planned – the evening results in the materialisation of Charles’ late first wife, the mischievous Elvira, who soon sets to work in showing how she intends to love Charles, Always – much to the chagrin of his eminently sensible second wife Ruth!

Join the Theatre of Dark Encounters, in the beautiful and atmospheric setting of Stansted House to see how the Condomines, both past, and present, cope with love across the astral plane.

This is Coward at his very best – witty, fast, charming and full of a spirit of fun!
