Noël Coward, having been bombed out of his home and office in the London bombing raids of WWII, retired to the English seacoast where he wrote “Blithe Spirit” in five days. Writing a play that was “thoroughly heartless,” he sought to provide some comic relief from the wartime horrors of the time.

Supporting the actors are Dan Huettner, Chris Crocker, Brian Church and Cheryl Herr-Rains.
Tickets cost $15 and available at the door or can be reserved by emailing Tim Davis at [email protected].
