The Lowdown
High Spirits, the Hugh Martin and Timothy Gray musical based on Coward’s Blithe Spirit, is rarely produced (the original 1964 production ran 375 performances; this Encores! staging ran 12 days). The 2026 revival at New York City Center featured Jessica Stone directing a cast that could have anchored five separate Broadway seasons simultaneously. Lenk played the ghost of Elvira, Soo her replacement, Martin the hilariously exasperating Madame Arcati, and Pasquale the hapless husband at the center of the supernatural love triangle.
The show ran February 4–15, 2026, which means it was the kind of performance that New Yorkers who saw it will spend the next twenty years smugly mentioning at dinner parties. Add it to the growing list of Encores! productions that should have transferred to Broadway immediately.
