Charlotte
Bronte's classic tale of love and insanity Jane Eyre is being brought
to the Swan by The Good Company and stars Clare Wilkie as Jane Eyre
and Brian Deacon as Rochester. 听
The love of Jane and Rochester, the dark secret of his wife and her
insanity, the great house that is burnt to the ground should lead
to a powerful drama.听
This new adaptation uses a striking set, lighting and evocative music
to capture the essence of Charlotte Bronte's unique imagination and
an emotional landscape of haunting power.
Hardy perennial
After Bronte comes Hardy and an adaptation of Far From The Madding
Crowd by the award winning Middle Ground Theatre Company.
This stars Stephen McGann, Frazer Hines and Kevin Pallister. 听
This is a Dorset love story, which tells the tale of the spirited
Bathsheba Everdine and her rural loves.听
The show has a period set live music, country dance, and Wessex song
and humour.
Emmerdale's
Frazer Hines stars as love sick Farmer Boldwood, Stephen McGann as
Loyal Gabriel Oak and Kevin Pallister as the dashing Sergeant Troy.听
