Blithe Spirit Opens in Athens

Noel Coward’s hit 1941 comedy, Blithe Spirit, is on stage at the Greek National Theatre. Directed by Yannis Houvardas, the play stars Argyris Xafis as the writer, Charles, Eirini Lafazani as his wife, Lucy, and Anna Mascha as the ghost of his first wife.

Blithe spirit, which is being staged for the first time by the National Theatre of Greece, was written in 1941, premiering in the West End and remaining there for a record run. It was one of Coward’s greatest successes as a playwright both in the UK and the United States, and has been adapted into a musical, a film (in 1945 and 2020), a radio production and a TV movie.

The production will be presented at the main stage of the National Theatre of Greece from February 25th - April 17th 2022.

Tickets can be booked here.
