YOU NEED TO PREPARE NOTHING FOR THIS AUDITION!
Blithe Spirit is a Noel Coward Comedy. It tells the tale of Novelist Charles Condomine, remarried but haunted, (literally), by the ghost of his late first wife, the clever and insistent Elvira who is called up by a visiting happy medium, one Madame Arcati. As the (Worldly and un-) personalities clash, Charles current wife Ruth is accidentally killed, passes over, joins Elvira and the two spirits haunt the hapless Charles into perpetuity.
Rehearsals will begin August 23rd. Depending on the role, most cast members will rehearse 3x to 4x per week to start, 6:30-9 PM. As the show dates approach, additional rehearsals will be needed. Everyone receives a rehearsal calendar before we begin. I make every effort not to waste your time. A practice calendar will be given at the first practice.
