"Blithe Spirit" crash and burn?

I've got this feeling of impending (or perhaps progressing?) doom surrounding "Blithe Spirit."

Maybe it's because the cast is severely divided, with the male lead and female lead swapping words only while onstage. Maybe it's because the performance energy and audience has been dwindling with each show, with only 26 in attendance at Sunday's show. Maybe it's because of the fact the directing/producing team decided to further trim the dialogue rather than fix the underlying problems (the lead actors are overacting a light comedy, dragging out dialogue with unnecessary interpretation.)

Doom, doom, doom.

On the bright side: Just six more performances (Friday, Saturday and Sunday of the next two weekends) in the production run.
