This is an amusing adaptation of the Noel Coward supernatural comedy about a man and his “spiritous” spouse.
Jennifer Saunders was ab fab as Madame Arcati with great performances from the rest of the cast too (Rose Wardlaw as Edith the maid, Lisa Dillon as Ruth, Geoffrey Streatfeild as Charles, Simon Coates as Dr Bradman, Lucy Robinson as Mrs Bradman and Madeleine Mantock as Elvira.
Although the theatre did check covid passes on entry and signs were suggesting the audience wear masks, unfortunately, not all did so. The theatre also advised people to turn up 60-90 mins early despite there not being much space to wait until the auditorium open about 30 mins before the performance.
I had an on the day bargain rush ticket from TodayTix, and it was a good view from the second row of the dress circle.
8/10
