Laying the Ghost by Simon Williams
Margot Buchanan, a very witty ex-actress living in the Yew Tree House retirement home on the south coast, is trying to forget it's her 70th Birthday. But all around her are intent on celebrating it, even Freda, her psychic friend who talks to ghosts aand is deep into her jigsaw puzzle of The Full Monty.
Margot is visited by the young Sadie Croft who is currently having an affair with Sir Leo Buchanan, Margots ex-husband, but they are interrupted by the arrival of Lady Judy Buchanan, Leos current wife. Leo arrives, in hiding from a tabloid reporter, but unfortunatley suffers from a fatal heart attack as the curtain falls on Act one.
Thus Act two is set for scenes of chaos and hilarity as Leo's ghost appears (visiable only to Freda), anxious to sort out matters between his three women.
