Dunes Summer Theatre kicks off its 2024 season May 31-June 16 with “Blithe Spirit.”
Sean Kelly and Danielle Bilderback star in the cast of Noel Coward’s “Blithe Spirit” May 31-June 16 at Dunes Summer Theatre in Michigan City. When Steve Scott saw the London’s West End revival run of Noel Coward’s classic stage comedy “Blithe Spirit” in Fall 2022, he knew it would be a perfect fit to produce at Dunes Summer Theatre in Michigan City, the same stage where he has served as artistic director since 2022.
Written by Coward in 1941, “Blithe Spirit” centers on a sophisticated British novelist haunted by the ghost of his mischievous former wife, after a séance conjures her spirit. “The elaborate set Michael has created is also a universal set so it can be transformed and modified for our other plays projects later in our season.”“There are so many special effects in this play, including things that have to collapse by the finale scene,” Lasswell said.
Scott said auditions for “Blithe Spirit” and the rest of the shows for Dunes Summer Theatre’s 73rd Season, started in January.“I think there was naturally a lot of interest in this particular play title because it is so iconic. Also, for the last revival, many people are familiar that the great Angela Lansbury was in the cast of ‘Blithe Spirit’ playing Madame Arcati.
