This Noël Coward classic comedy is set in the charming country home of Charles Condomine, a re-married widower. A witty and convivial evening party among friends is transformed when a séance conjures the ghost of Elvira, Charles' first wife, who delights in wreaking havoc among the living.

An L.A. Theatre Works full cast performance featuring:

Rosalind Ayres as Ruth Alexandra Boyd as Ensemble Judy Geeson as Elvira Shirley Knight as Madame Arcati Lynne Marta as Ensemble Christopher Neame as Ensemble Ian Ogilvy as Charles

Includes a piece on the "science" of hearing the voices of the dead, or "Electronic Voice Phenomena" with British radio producer Mike Harding.

Directed by Michael Hackett. Recorded before a live audience at the DoubleTree Suites, Santa Monica in July of 1998.
