Event Details
Set in late 18th century England, this modern adaptation of Jane Austen's beloved novel follows the Dashwood sisters-reserved Elinor and expressive Marianne-after their father's sudden death leaves them without money and socially vulnerable. Gossipy, humorous, and filled with emotional depth, this witty play adapted by Kate Hamill is a funny and thoughtful examination of the sacrifices and consequences born from societal pressures, and what can happen when you choose to ignore them. "...an unconditional delight...invigorating...a bouncy, jaunty take on Austen...remains remarkably true to the values and priorities of its source. The classic Austen preoccupations with real estate, income, class, reputation and equilibrium in life are all rendered brightly and legibly here." - The New York Times.
