An alert for today, September 3:
EBBW VALE Operatic and Dramatic Society are set to stage a classic next May at the Beaufort Theatre – the Welsh premiere of the musical version of Charlotte Bronte’s Jane Eyre.
Jane Eyre is the story of an orphan girl who overcomes an abusive childhood and the death of her best friend to become the governess of Thornfield Hall.
There she falls in love with Edward Rochester, an aristocrat with a dark secret. On their wedding day she discovers what he’s hiding – he already has a wife, a lunatic hidden in the attic.
Shocked, Jane flees to her childhood home, only to find her aunt is dying. Even though her aunt had treated her cruelly as a child, Jane forgives her. In doing so, she realises she is someone who can love and be loved. She returns to Thornfield Hall, only to discover it has burned to the ground and Rochester has been blinded. Jane and Rochester are married and soon Rochester’s sight partially returns so that he is able to see his newborn son.
An opportunity exists for young people between the ages of eight and 16 to audition for the roles of young Jane Eyre (aged eight-12), Helen Burns (aged 12-18), John Reed (aged 10-14), and a chorus of 10-15 orphaned schoolgirls (aged eight-16).
If you are interested in auditioning for any of these roles, please contact Jay Jones on 01495 303794.
Auditions take place on Wednesday, September 3 at 5.30pm in Rassau Senior Citizens’ Hall. (Gwent Gazette)
