rama presents 6 lithe Spirit' On the nights of November 18-20, the cast of Blithe Spiritl' opened for Paradise Va1ley's first play of the year. The directors were Mrs. Mary Irvin, drama teacher, and Mrs. Sue Bardon, English teacher. The student director was Joe Dunn and stage manager was Lisa Turner. Blithe Spirit , written by Noel Coward, tells the story of Charles Condomine, who, as a result of a seance, performed by Madame Arcati, is being haunted by his dead wife, Elvira. Elvira does all she can to kill Charles but instead manages to kill his second wife, Ruth. Together Elvira and Ruth finish off the story, which is quite a comedy. The cast is as follows: Tim Nisbet as Charles Condomine, Anne Marie Picerno as Ruth and Cin- dy Swan as Elvira. Others are Beth Dutton as Madame Arcati, Joe Dunn and Rick Dye as Dr. Bradman, Kathleen Dutton and Sharon Bigelow as Mrs. Bradman, Terri Brown and Stefanie Kisselburg as Edith. Awami
