It seems that the ACU college production of Jane Eyre. The musical currently on stage, generates good reviews as this one in The Optimist:

Julie Miller, senior theatre major from Winter Garden, Fla., as Jane, and Ben Jeffrey, senior theatre major from Kansas City, Mo., as Rochester, both deliver commanding and impressive performances with unbelievable voices. Their characters transition through a variety of complex emotions throughout the novel and play, and Miller and Jeffrey convey these with pitch-perfect precision. Though, despite being the title character, Jane's show is stolen away by her very own Mr. Rochester. (...)

This endearing romance and ambitious production of "Jane Eyre: The Musical" is one of the more sweeping and impressive non-Homecoming musicals in recent years, and one of the best Theatre Department productions I've seen over the past four years.
