Theatre legend, Oscar-winner and five-time Tony Award-winner Angela Lansbury returns to the West End to reprise her role in Noel Coward's Blithe Spirit. Check out a new promo for the show, featuring Lansbury herself, below!

Researching for his new novel, Charles Condomine (Charles Edwards) invites the implausible medium Madame Arcati (Angela Lansbury) to his house for a seance. Whilst consumed in a trance, Madame Arcati unwittingly summons the ghost of Charles' dead wife Elvira (Jemima Rooper). Appearing only to Charles, Elvira soon makes a play to reclaim her husband, much to the chagrin of Charles' new wife Ruth (Janie Dee). One husband, two feuding wives and a whisper of mischief in the air - who will win in Coward's unworldly comedy?

Blithe Spirit plays at SHN Golden Gate Theatre January 20 - February 1, 2015.
