Jane Eyre
By Charlotte Brontë.
Outdoor and Indoor, June to September 2010.
Jane Eyre is playing a wide range of small to mid scale indoor venues, Colleges, atmospheric ball/drawing rooms and open air spaces at heritage sites - from Broxbourne Civic Hall to Corfe Castle! It combines drama and music, pays close attention to period detail and suits a wide variety of spaces.
Published in 1847 under the pen name 'Currer Bell' , it is said to be partly autobiographical. It tells the well known story of plain but clever orphan Jane who is sent from her abusive aunts home, (afterreacting passionately to being locked in a room where her uncle has died), to Lowood - a school for the poor. Life at the school is hard, the girls are frequently cold, have little to eat but Jane finds a true and gentle friend in Helen - until 'consumption' strikes her down and the girl dies in Jane's arms. Jane grows into a fine young woman and eventually leaves the school to begin a new life as a Governess at Thornfield Manor where she falls in love with her employer - brooding, troubled and fascinating Mr Rochester. But this is only the beginning for all is not as it first appears at Thornfield, who does she hear crying and the dead of night, who is the owner of the of the unworldly laugh that haunts the halls and who started the fire from which Jane saves Mr Rochester? Can Jane rise from the ashes and extinguish the flames offate that have kept her from true happiness? With courage, determination and love in her heart we hope so.
Placed in the 'Gothic Horror/Social Criticism' genre Jane journey's through a plot which keeps you spell bound to the end.
