Subject: Tickets are on sale now for Blithe Spirit
Tickets are on sale now for Blithe Spirit, the Oro Valley Theatre Company staging of Noel Coward's witty, urbane play April 18-21 at the Gaslight Music Hall in Oro Valley.
Karen Kreider directs the show, the third and final in the 2023-'24 season for OVTC.
"If you want to spend an evening laughing out loud, then come see one of Noel Coward's wittiest plays that promises chuckles, belly laughs and a few surprises," Kreider said.
Blithe Spirit, the smash comedy hit of the London and Broadway stages, is based upon the plot complications created by a seance. (Doesn't everyone love a seance!) Fussy, cantankerous novelist Charles Condomine is haunted by his two late wives into perpetuity.
"Blithe Spirit is a comedic take on ghostly spirits, poking fun at our penchant for believing in otherworldly beings and their mischief-making," a description said.
Most members of the cast are familiar to OVTC patrons. They are Michele Holland, Arnie Krauss, Karen Alexander, C. Gilles-Brown, Ted Dreisinger, Ruth Ann Larsen and Sasha Case.
Kreider retired after 31 years with Disney in Burbank, Calif. She and her husband Bill Crounse moved to Oro Valley to be near family. Kreider has had the full breadth of theater experience, from props and lighting to set design, acting ... and directing.
Case serves as assistant director and production coordinator. Kevin Cleere handles the set design and construction, Charlie Gebow lighting and operations, Kathy Gillespie the costumes and props.
Performances are at 6 p.m. Thursday, April 18 and Friday, April 19, at 2 and 6 p.m. Saturday, April 20, and at 2 p.m. Sunday, April 21. Tickets are $34 for adults, $32 for seniors and active military and veterans.

OVTC season sponsors are La Posada Pusch Ridge, the Lisa Bayless Team at Long Realty and Splendido at Rancho Vistoso.
