The Play:
In the quaint English countryside, Charles Condomine, a successful novelist, is seeking inspiration for his next book. To gather material, he invites the eccentric medium Madame Arcati to conduct a séance at his home, much to the amusement of his wife, Ruth, and their friends. However, the evening takes an unexpected turn when Madame Arcati inadvertently summons the mischievous spirit of Charles's first wife, Elvira.
Elvira, with her ghostly charm and wit, decides to stick around, creating havoc and hilarity as she meddles in Charles's current marriage. Caught between his two wives—one alive and one deceased—Charles finds himself in a whirlwind of supernatural shenanigans. As he tries to navigate this new reality, the tension and laughter escalate, leading to a series of comical and unpredictable events.
