Synopsis:
When famous crime writer Jack Cameron and his wife Susie drown in a boating accident, they are refused entry into heaven – Jack is a card-carrying atheist – so they return to haunt the country cottage where they lived. Life is dull. Their only pleasure comes from spooking the estate agent and frightening away any would-be tenants. Things change when Susie persuades Jack to allow a young couple, Simon, an aspiring crime writer, and Flic, his pregnant wife, to move in. Inevitably Susie and Jack become drawn into their lives, and whilst Simon has writer’s block, Marcia, Flic’s monstrous mother, is doing her best to separate them.
Roles: (note - English accents are expected for most, though not all, roles)
Jack Cameron – Male 40s to 60s. Dead (ghost) famous writer. Witty and urbane. English accent
Susie Cameron – Female, 40s to 60s. Dead (ghost) wife of Jack. Sophisticated air. English accent
Simon Willis - Male, 20s to 30s. Struggling writer. English accent
Flic Willis - Female, 20s to 30s. Wife of Simon. English accent
Mark Webster – Male, 30s to 60s. Real estate agent, pompous and pedantic. English accent
Marcia Bradshaw – Female, 55+. Mother of Flic. Difficult, forbidding and a terrible snob. English accent
Angel - 60+ a guardian angel, though not the angelic figure one would expect
From the director:
I was asked to direct this play in 2020. Well THAT didn't happen. When I read this script I immediately liked it. And everyone who I have had read it immediately liked it. It is well written, combining humor and pathos, with a dash of slapstick and a lot of heart.
