The critical consensus

Stunning.

(*) Irene Brown, Edinburgh Guide, 16/05/2017

A refreshing production that – at its best – is a shot of pure theatre.

(*) Hugh Simpson, All Edinburgh Theatre, 16/05/2017

Confident and compelling.

(*) S.E. Webster, The Reviews Hub, 16/05/2017

A disappointing adaptation of the romantic classic.

(*) (*) (*) Gareth K Vile, The List, 17/05/2017

Tremendous and unforgettable.

Joyce McMillan, The Scotsman, 19/05/2017

This production of Jane Eyre is a real triumph for a talented ensemble cast who deliver the physically demanding, multi-tasking nature of their roles with ease.

Hannah Wright, The Wee Review, 17/05/2017

While it was written 170 years ago this production feels incredibly fresh and it is well worth seeing.

(*) Natalie O'Donoghue, Broadway World, 06/06/2017

The brave and unusual retelling of Charlotte Bronte’s epic tale is a triumph – smouldering with pioneering spirit and sizzling with raw emotion.

Harriet Brace, The Reviews Hub, 06/06/2017

To make a production so much longer than average is a real indulgence that must be diligently earned. In this most essential of tasks, the production fails.
