Blithe by Katarina Roccella

It’s the wickedly funny comedy. This day was very crowd because it is a first weekend where Angela Lansbury recieved her fifth career Tony Award.

Blithe Spirit, by Noël Coward, directed by Tom Sainsbury

This Noël Coward comedy classic tells the story of suave novelist Charles Condomine and his second wife, Ruth. They invite local medium, Madam Arcati, to conduct a séance to inspire him for his next novel. The evening doesn't go as planned, and the sceptical Charles is reunited with the ghost of his first wife, Elvira. Only he can see Elvira and she doesn't take kindly to Ruth having usurped her. Attempts by Madame Arcati fail to return her to the “other world”, and Elvira’s spirit transforms the lives of Charles and Ruth forever.
