Brief thoughts on Blithe Spirit 4/9/09

I saw Blithe Spirit on April 9. It was the first professional play (as opposed to musical) that I saw and I really liked it. I thought the cast was strong, the pace was good, and the script was surprisingly funny. The two standouts for me were Christine Ebersole and Angela Lansbury. Jayne Atkinson and Rupert Everett were also very good. My only disappointment was that Christine didn't come out the stage door. Still, I'm really glad I got to see her, Ms. Lansbury, and the rest of the cast perform.
