“Jane Eyre”
Returning to the Lunch & Learn program having previously played an outstanding Emily Dickinson in “The Belle of Amherst,” actress, writer, and director Carol Weakland will perform Charlotte Bronte's romantic novel, Jane Eyre. Weakland tells the story as Jane and acts the parts of the other main characters. This promises to be another marvelous performance.
