Not believing in the supernatural\, Charles is unpleasantly surprised when his former wife is summoned\, causing a strain on his current marriage. His first wife\, Elvira\, seems happy to stay around\, but she has more up her ghostly sleeves than she lets on.  \n  \nCASTING THE FOLLOWING ROLES:\nEDITH (F\, 18-20’s): She is the new maid for the Condomines. Her nervousness makes her awkward and unprofessional. She also has a secret affinity towards the supernatural. (Role requires a British Accent.) \nRUTH CONDOMINE (F\, Mid 30’s): A sophisticated\, intelligent\, demanding\, and practical woman. Underneath her confident demeanor\, there is a hint of insecurity of being the second wife of Charles Condomine. (Role requires a British Accent.) \nCHARLES CONDOMINE (M\, 40’s): A witty\, refined novelist. He has a quick temper\, but also can allow others to push him around. He was married to Elvira before she died and is now married to Ruth. (Role requires a British Accent.) \nDR. GEORGE BRADMAN (M\, 40’s-50’s): A kind and skeptical doctor that plays along with the Condomine’s séance. Husband of Violet. (Role requires a British Accent.) \nMRS. VIOLET BRADMAN (F\, 40’s-50’s): An excitable\, kind\, and somewhat oblivious woman who has a habit of sticking her foot in her mouth. Wife of George. (Role requires a British Accent.) \nMADAM ARCATI (F\, 50’s-70’s): An eccentric\, lively\, and unusual spiritualist. She takes her role as a medium with the upmost sincerity. Her fashion is as wild as her personality. (Role requires a British Accent.) \nELVIRA CONDOMINE (F\, Late 20’s-Early 30’s): A bold\, free-spirited\, tricky and diabolical woman. She died relatively young and has come from beyond the grave to retrieve her once-husband\, Charles. (Role requires a British Accent.) \nBEGINNING REHEARSAL SCHEDULE:\n  \n\n\nBlithe Spirit Beg. Reh.
