Blithe Spirit


Blithe Spirit, Norwich Theatre Royal, 2020.

Cast: Rose Wardlaw, Lisa Dillon, Geoffrey Streatfeild, Simon Coates, Lucy Robinson, Jennifer Saunders, Emma Naomi.

Writer: Noel Coward
Director: Richard Eyre

I feel like I haven't had much luck with this play - the role of Madame Arcati just encourages people to overact and I hardly think Jennifer Saunders needs encouragement. I should probably never see this again, although I suspect I said that before I saw this - who can resist Jennifer?
