"I grew up on literature. Both of my parents were English teachers and we read a lot." With this background and dance training in Cambridge and London, Cathy Martson developed into a distinctive choreographer who is celebrated worldwide, not least for her literary ballets. John Neumeier has invited her version of "Jane Eyre" based on the classic novel by Charlotte Brontë for the penultimate premiere of his artistic directorship. The Times of London raved about Northern Ballet's 2016 premiere, "beautifully crafted and moving … imbued with emotional veracity." In 2019, the ballet was exported to the U.S. and staged at both the American Ballet Theater (New York) and the Joffrey Ballet (Chicago). It will celebrate its German premiere with the Hamburg Ballet in 2023.
