GENEVA ENGLISH DRAMA SOCIETY

SPECIAL EVENT - 10 June 2007 at Chateau de Prangins

BLITHE SPIRIT, by Noël Coward

arranged by Chuck Slovenski

Novelist Charles Condomine invites into his placid country home an eccentric lady medium in order to learn the language of the occult. Little does Charles or his second wife, Ruth, dream that the séance staged by the medium will summon back Charles' first wife, now "passed over" for seven years. But the lady from beyond appears and torments Charles by reminding him of their days and nights together. Only Charles can see or hear her. A floating vase, handed to her out of thin air, finally convinces Ruth that Charles is not losing his mind that his first wife is indeed in the room. The first wife has a ghostly plot in mind: if she can get Charles into an automobile accident and make a ghost of him, life in the spirit world will have more appeal for her. Mistakes occur, however.
