The Brass Tacks Announces Casting for BLITHE SPIRIT by Noel Coward

The Brass Tacks Ensemble (Artistic Director James Ingagiola and Executive Director Isaac Ellis) is excited to announce the cast for Blithe Spirit by Noël Coward, directed by Aaron C. Wade.

When a socialite novelist curious about the occult hires a medium to gain inspiration for his next book, he gets more than he ever bargained for: the ghost of his first wife returns, spreading tragically hilarious consequences in her wake. Noël Coward's enduring play explores the dark repercussions of blissful ignorance, and with the help of the supernatural creates marital turmoil like no one has ever seen.

The cast of Blithe Spirit includes Eric Bloch, Chloe Grisa, Dorianne Jentzen, Maegan Murphy, Lori O'Dell, Russ Schwartz, and Emily Sparrow-Watts.

Blithe Spirit plays for two weekends, November 2-4 and November 9-11, 2018; Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00 pm, Sundays at 2:00 pm at the CCC, 1600 Pauline Blvd. in Ann Arbor. Blithe Spirit is presented by special arrangement with SAMUEL FRENCH, INC. Tickets are $15 for general admission and $5 for students (with ID). For reservations, visit The Brass Tacks Ensemble website or call or text (734) 926-5376.
