Jane Eyre: An Autobiography
Dyad Productions
From the creators of Dalloway, Christmas Gothic, I Elizabeth, Female Gothic, Austen’s Women and The Unremarkable Death of Marilyn Monroe …
Struggling to think, live and love beyond the stifling expectations of duty, class and convention, governess Jane Eyre and Master Edward Rochester take a dark journey towards sensual and intellectual liberation.
Told through Jane’s eyes, English literature’s most celebrated autobiographical novel shocked the Victorians, and Charlotte Brontë’s gothic subversion of fairytale romance is now distilled for the stage – under its full title – by writer/director Elton Townend Jones.
Performer Rebecca Vaughan embodies everywoman Jane – and several other characters – in this intimate study of love’s realities.
“Hands down the best adaptation of Jane Eyre, in any medium.”
