The Christmas Play: Blithe Spirit

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Blithe Spirit: an improbable farce by Noel Coward, adapted for radio by Norman Wright

with Dulcie Gray and Michael Denison

The play hilariously exploits the Eternal Triangle in a double sense - Charles Condomine lives in wedded bliss with his wife. Ruth, until his former wife, Elvira, returns to haunt them!
