At the séance\, she inadvertently summons Charles’s first wife\, Elvira\, who has been dead for seven years. Only Charles can see or hear Elvira. The ghostly Elvira makes continued\, and increasingly desperate\, efforts to disrupt Charles’s current marriage. She finally sabotages his car in the hope of killing him so that he will join her in the spirit world\, but it is Ruth rather than Charles who drives off and is killed. \nRuth’s ghost immediately comes back for revenge on Elvira\, and Charles calls Madame Arcati back to exorcise both of the spirits\, but instead of banishing them she unintentionally materialises Ruth. With both his dead wives now fully visible\, and neither of them in the best of tempers\, Charles\, together with Madame Arcati\, goes through séance after séance and spell after spell to try to exorcise them. It is not until Madame Arcati works out that the housemaid\, Edith\, is psychic and had unwittingly been the conduit through which Elvira was summoned that she succeeds in dematerialising both ghosts. Charles is left seemingly in peace\, but Madame Arcati\, hinting that the ghosts may still be around unseen\, warns him that he should go far away as soon as possible. \nROLES AVAILABLE:\n(Please note that the roles of Madame Arcati\, Charles Condomine\, Ruth Condomine and Elvira have been pre-cast). \nAll ages given are general stage ages.
