Tomorrow, June 23, a production of
Jane Eyre adapted by Willis Hall opens in Bristol, UK:
Jane Eyre
By Charlotte Brontë
Adapted by Willis Hall
Directed by Lucy Pitman-Wallace
Performed by Bristol Old Vic Theatre School's Graduating Overseas Course Students.
Jane Eyre ranks as one of the greatest works of English Fiction, a grand passion that survies cruelty and loss; a story of success and redemption, a tribute to the indomitable spirit of a heroine battling prejudice in a time of rigid social convention.
This will be the third adaptation presented by the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School's Overseas Course to celebrate the sharp wit and great courage of independent women in the eighteenth and ninteenth centuries.
