Star of French and Saunders and Absolutely Fabulous, Jennifer Saunders plays an eccentric clairvoyant in the West End transfer of Noël Coward’s BLITHE SPIRIT at the Harold Pinter Theatre.
Jennifer Saunders is one of the UK’s most popular comic actresses. Her gleefully funny performance as the eccentric clairvoyant, Madame Arcati, delighted both critics and audiences alike when the production opened in Theatre Royal Bath’s 2019 Summer Season. With a distinguished creative team who have won a plethora of awards between them, this is a Blithe Spirt full of sparkling and spirit-lifting hijinks.
Saunders is much loved for the sketch show French and Saunders along with Dawn French, for which she received a BAFTA fellowship in 2009, and for the hit comedy series and subsequent film, Absolutely Fabulous, which starred starred in with Joanna Lumley.
