Countdown to Blithe Spirit


By director Beth Reynolds

Rehearsals have been gathering pace over the last month. The cast have worked hard on their lines and the scenery is now complete thanks to our excellent team of set builders and artists.


We were lucky enough to have three rehearsals on stage over Easter. It was really helpful for the cast to get a sense of the space they will be inhabiting.

Blithe Spirit is a witty and, at times, complex script, which requires energy and accuracy in the delivery, and I am excited by the progress the talented cast have made.


The backstage crew have been amazing. There is a lot of work involved especially as there are a number of special effects. Period props and furniture are also a challenge, as are the necessarily detailed costumes. All in all, the performances will be the culmination of a great deal of effort on the part of everyone involved and I hope that the audience will really enjoy the result.


I have been very excited to watch the play gradually emerge over the last few months and cannot wait to share it with you.



Book your tickets to watch Blithe Spirit at Loddon Hall from the 8th to 10th of May.
