Jane Eyre (Modern Plays)
Product ID: 62507723
Almost 170 years on, Charlotte Brontë’s story of the trailblazing Jane is as inspiring as ever. This bold and dynamic production uncovers one woman’s fight for freedom and fulfilment on her own terms. From her beginnings as a destitute orphan, Jane Eyre’s spirited heroine faces life’s obstacles head-on, surviving poverty, injustice and the discovery of bitter betrayal before taking the ultimate decision to follow her heart. This inventive staging of Brontë's masterpiece was first staged by Bristol Old Vic in 2014, when the story was performed over two evenings. Director Sally Cookson now brings her celebrated production to the National Theatre, presented as a single, exhilarating performance.

Good Modern play
Have seen the production, wanted to read play. Slight disappointment as no extra bits, interviews, stage design, etc around the production, just the text. Good play retelling the classic novel, modem in style, with modern theatre approaches. Very much left to the director to stage.
