About the Play: A theatre-lovers’ favourite ever since it was written, Blithe Spirit is a tug-of-love comedy with a difference: one of the lovers is a ghost. Novelist Charles, hoping to gather material for his next book, asks Madame Arcati (one of the great characters in all of theatre) to conduct a séance in his house. It works too well: his first wife returns from the other side, with predictably disastrous results for his second marriage. Noël Coward at his deadliest.
About the Play: In conversation about if plants could actually shoot things like the ones in Plants VS Zombies, Sam mentions having a panic room. All but one are confused by this. Toby is insanely intrigued. Eventually they go down to check it out, only it isn't what anyone expected... The door locks from the outside. Already weirded out by Toby's... interests, the three teens begin to spiral.
