"Bell, Book and Candle" Casts Theatrical Spell in Blackbox Theater at Ursinus College
Just in time for Halloween, the Ursinus College Theater
Department stages Bell, Book and Candle,
a romantic comedy that evokes the 1950s and the sitcom Bewitched.
Director Beverly Redman directs the play Oct. 30, 31 and
Nov. 1 and 2 at 7:30 p.m. in the Blackbox Studio Theater in the campus
Kaleidoscope Performing Arts Center. Parking, in the lot off Ninth Ave., is
free. Tickets, at www.ursinus.edu/tickets,
are $5 general admission and $2 for students and senior citizens.
In playwright John Van Druten’s Bell, Book and Candle, a free-spirited witch looking for love casts
spells on her neighbor, even though finding love could mean losing her
supernatural powers. Bell, Book and
Candle enjoyed a successful run on Broadway in the early 1950s and was
followed by a hit film, starring Kim Novak, Jimmy Stewart and Jack Lemon. The
television show Bewitched drew its
inspiration from the play.
