Description:

Laugh your ARSE off at Blithe Spirit, a hauntingly good show at the Classic Theatre!

San Antonio, TX-- An Improbable Farce, supernatural elementals and the elements of farce collide in Sir Noel Cowards classic 1930s comedy about socialite novelist Charles Condomine who lives with his second wife Ruth in a cottage in Kent, England. Charles, seeking material for his new book on the occult, invites a local eccentric medium, Madame Arcati, to conduct a sance even though he is skeptical of all things arcane. When Mme. Arcatis magical, mystical rituals conjure up the spirit of Charles first wife, Elvira, a battle of wits, words and otherworldly schemes begins. Elvira is visible only to Charles, but it is Ruth who feels the brunt of Elviras machinations. Ruth proclaims it a bloody battle a duel to the death between Elvira and Ruth, as each wife, consumed with jealousy of the other, claims Charles as her own true love. Dont miss this hysterical show!
