The Lehigh Valley Charter High School for the Arts (Charter Arts) Theatre Department continues its 2025-26 season with a production of Noël Coward’s mischievous comedy, "Blithe Spirit". When a novelist invites a medium to his home for a séance as research, things go hilariously wrong—summoning the ghost of his first wife and turning married life upside down.

This delightful supernatural comedy of manners promises sparkling wit, unexpected twists, and laugh-out-loud moments for audiences of all ages.

Director, Kelly Minner-Bickert shares: “'Blithe Spirit' really is a masterwork in the genre. We chose the play not only because we know it’s a crowd-pleaser, but for the benefit of our student actors, who through this process grow exponentially in developing their comic timing, delivery and character development.”

Show times include: evening performances on January 30 & 31 at 7 PM and a matinee performance on February 1 at 2 PM.

Tickets are $14 Adult, $8 Student/Child and can be purchased at CharterArts.org or at the door.

"Blithe Spirit" by Noël Coward is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.com.

Pennsylvania Youth Theatre presents Peter and the Starcatcher on February 13th and 14th at the Charles Brown Ice House in Bethlehem! Performances are on the 13th at 7 pm & the 14th at 2 pm.

A young orphan and his mates are shipped off from Victorian England to a distant island ruled by the evil King Zarboff. They know nothing of the mysterious trunk in the captain’s cabin, which contains a precious, otherworldly cargo. At sea, the boys are discovered by a precocious young girl named Molly, a Starcatcher-in-training who realizes that the trunk’s precious cargo is starstuff, a celestial substance so powerful that it must never fall into the wrong hands. When the ship is taken over by pirates – led by the fearsome Black Stache, a villain determined to claim the trunk and its treasure for his own – the journey quickly becomes a thrilling adventure.
