Bishopstoke PlayersJANE EYRE
Adapted for stage by Charles Vance
This well-loved classic nineteenth-century story of penniless orphan Jane Eyre is brought to the stage faithfully conveying the exceptional emotional power of the original novel. Focusing on the love story between Jane and Rochester, the play begins as Jane arrives in 1846 to take up the post of governess to Rochester's ward, Adèle, at Thornfield Hall, a place of mystery and fear. Jane and Rochester fall in love but their happiness is jeopardised by the discovery of the terrible secret from Rochester's past, resolved by the dramatic fire which maims him.
