A love that defies convention. A woman who refuses to be contained.
Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre burns with love, defiance and a fierce determination to be free. The five-time Tony Award-nominated musical now receives its UK premiere at Southwark Playhouse Elephant.
Orphaned and determined to shape her own future, Jane Eyre arrives at Thornfield Hall to become governess to the ward of the enigmatic Edward Rochester. Their connection is immediate, but Thornfield is a house of secrets and the truth Jane uncovers will force her to choose between passion and the independence she has fought to protect.
Jane and Rochester are drawn together against reason and convention, while the secrets of Thornfield threaten the life Jane is determined to choose for herself. Co-directed by Tony Award-winning director John Caird, whose work includes Les Misérables, and Broadway performer and director Megan McGinnis.
