"Noël Coward's Blithe Spirit is a classic stage comedy, and the production at Don Bluth Front Row Theatre shows how the play can still charm a modern audience 85 years after it first premiered. Under confident direction and with a fairly strong cast, this drawing-room farce lands its laughs with consistency and style. The cast and production embrace Coward's wit and theatricality which allows the humor, characters, and supernatural experiences to shine....The cast handles Coward's language and rhythmic line delivery with confidence. Mitchell Glass perfectly captures Charles Condomine's smug charm, confusion, and mounting frustration. As Ruth, Charles's second wife, Katie Allen is fantastic, with her composure slowly unraveling as events spiral out of control. Meg Farnsworth Faraoni is a spirited delight as the playful and mischievous Elvira, with a performance that balances flirtation and spite."   - Gil Benbrook, TalkinBroadway.com (click here to read the complete review)
