Stunning.
A refreshing production that – at its best – is a shot of pure theatre.
Confident and compelling.

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.
While it was written 170 years ago this production feels incredibly fresh and it is well worth seeing.
The brave and unusual retelling of Charlotte Bronte’s epic tale is a triumph – smouldering with pioneering spirit and sizzling with raw emotion.
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.
