BLITHE SPIRIT- LIVE ON STAGE IN DOYLESTOWN!
by Matt Smith 11 May '25

11 May '25

Tickets are NOW ON SALE for Noel Coward's comedy, "BLITHE SPIRIT", live on stage at the Blue Macaroon Theater in Doylestown the weekend of May 30th! https://www.tickettailor.com/events/bluemacaroontheatercompany/1688934 Performances: Friday, May 30th at 7pm Saturday, May 31st at 7pm Sunday, June 1st at 2pm A smash comedy hit in London and New York, this much-revived classic from the playwright of Private Lives concerns fussy, cantankerous novelist Charles Condomine, who has remarried but finds himself haunted (literally) by the ghost of his late first wife, Elvira. Clever, insistent and well aware of Charles' shortcomings, Elvira is called up by a visiting “happy medium,” the eccentric and flighty Madame Arcati. As everyone's personalities clash, Charles’ current wife, Ruth, is accidentally killed. She “passes over” and joins Elvira, allowing the two “blithe spirits” to haunt the hapless Charles into perpetuity. Directed by Daniel Amiot As with all performances at the Blue Macaroon, seating is limited!
