Ghosts in the
Dolman Theatre are playing a spooky role in rehearsals for ‘Blithe Spirit’ in
which a medium holds a séance. Actors from Newport Playgoers preparing for Noel
Coward’s witty comedy are concerned that their onstage séance may disturb the
two ghosts that are said to haunt the theatre.
In the play, a writer accidentally summons up the spirit of his first wife, Elvira (Eloise Rossiter) |
Clare Drewett as medium Madame Arcati
holds a séance during rehearsals for ‘Blithe Spirit’.

"When I investigate there’s no-one there. A Playgoers member turned as white as a sheet after she heard someone whisper in her ears when she was alone in one of the rooms.”
