Blithe Spirit
Blithe Spirit | Noel Coward
10 posts | 6 read | 4 to read
I will ever be grateful for the almost psychic gift that enabled me to write Blithe Spirit in five days during one of the darkest years of the war.' Written in 1941, Blithe Spirit remained the longest-running comedy in British Theatre for three decades thereafter. Plotted around the central role of one of Coward's best loved characters, a spirit medium Madame Arcati (originally performed by Margaret Rutherford) Coward's play is an escapist comedy about a man whose two previous wives return to haunt him. "A minor comic masterpiece of the lighter sort" Professor Allardyce Nicoll

JamieArc I love this. My grandmother passed away a few years ago, but she directed plays and musicals for a local theater for a long time, including this one. I love those memories ❤️ 3y

Just perfect 💕 so pleased to have found this vintage edition of the stage play, complete with scene and lighting directions. The 1945 movie with Rex Harrison and Margaret Rutherford is my absolute favourite film of all time, a complete comfort watch for me. This addition to my shelves therefore, is very very precious 😍

CatAndKindle I love that film too xx 6y
RedLeaves @CatAndKindle I smile all the way through 😊 love the punchy dialogue! 6y
CatAndKindle It‘s my birthday next week. One of those traumatic ones with a zero at the end. The people at work bought me tickets to see Blithe Spirit which is on at a local theatre later this year. So perfect 6y

CatAndKindle It‘s the Peoples Theatre in the Newcastle upon Tyne suburbs if you should find yourself up this way 6y
RedLeaves @CatAndKindle Oh I wish! ☺️ Enjoy! 6y
