Psychic Play to Open in Broadway
Noel Coward’s 1941 comedy Blithe Spirit will officially open Sunday, March 15 at the Shubert Theatre on West 44th Street. It already began preview performances last Thursday, February 26.
The revival will star Anglea Lansbury who plays medium Madame Arcati. Other cast members include Rupert Everett, Christine Ebersole, Jayne Atkinson, Simon Jones and Deborah Rush.
The story revolves around Charles who is researching for his new novel. He engages the services of Madame Arcati, a spiritual medium, to communicate with the dead. Aracati summons the spirit of Charles’ first wife Elvira by accident. What ensues is a clever plot with crisp dialogue involving Charles, his current wife Ruth, and the psychic world.
The play will be directed by two-time Tony winner Michael Blakemore. The set is designed by Peter Davison, lighting by Brian MacDevitt and costumes by Martin Pakledinaz.
A psychic consultant has also been hired as part of the creative team. Several New York psychics were auditioned for the job. The psychic hired was asked to channel the late playwright’s spirit to get his take on the casting and the production.
The play is produced by Jeffrey Richards, Steve Traxler, Jerry Frankel, , Jennifer Costello, Scott Delman, Ken Davenport, , Jamie DeRoy, Michael Filerman, Wendy Federman, Jeffrey Finn, Ronald Frankel, Barbara and Buddy Freitag, JK Productions, Alan D. Marks, Patty Ann Lacerte, , Terry Schnuck, Judith Resnick, Barry Weisbord and Arlene Scanlan.
