The pace is ferocious - I don't remember ever seeing a production where emotions are kept so high and nerve ends so raw from start to finish without it becoming wearysome. It's terrific theatre which is completely true to the essence of the book. --TheatreWales.co.uk
A passionate new adaptation of the timeless classic, ideal both for students of the book and for drama groups. Emily Brontë's gothic tale of tortured love is brought to the stage in all its turbulent, passionate glory. Long before Twilight stirred the emotions of a generation, Wuthering Heights embodied the eternal pull between good and evil, dark and light, and heaven and hell.
This exhilarating and vibrant adaptation of the literary classic brings to life the all-encompassing love between the taciturn, brooding Heathcliff and the emotionally unstable Catherine. Their destructive relationship is one of the most enduring love stories of English literature.
