The fussy and cantankerous novelist Charles Condomine finds himself literally haunted when an eccentric medium – Madame Arcati – inadvertently conjures up the ghost of his first wife, Elvira, at a séance. When she appears, visible only to Charles, and determined to sabotage his current marriage to Ruth, life – and the afterlife – get complicated.
Things go rapidly downhill as a baffled Charles watches his dead wife and his living wife fight over him, but who will win?
Intensely funny, Blithe Spirit combines farce, emotion and wit to great effect.
