Blithe Spirit — Auckland Theatre Company

9 to 28 November, ASB Waterfront Theatre, Auckland

When novelist Charles Condomine visits eccentric spiritualist Madame Arcanti to gather material for his forthcoming book, a séance derails his literary project and his life. The ghost of his temperamental first wife — unseen and unheard by his new partner — causes comic chaos in her attempts to reunite with her husband. Penned by British playwright Noel Coward, Blithe Spirit debuted in war-torn London in 1941. atc.co.nz
