Jane Eyre
Based on Sally Cookson, Mike Akers and The Original Company’s acclaimed adaptation of Charlotte Brontë’s ground breaking novel, Jane Eyre is one woman’s fight for a life that is worthy of her courage, and a love that is worthy of her heart.
Orphaned as a young girl, the passionate and sensitive Jane longs to escape the clutches of her cruel aunt.
Freedom beckons when she is offered the job of a governess in the house of the brooding and secretive Mr Rochester.
As intrigue turns to attraction, Jane finds herself drawn in by Rochester’s mercurial charm. But when the truth finally comes out, she will be forced to choose between the man she wants, and the woman she wants to be.
Jane Eyre is a co-production between Storyhouse, the Mercury Theatre, Colchester, and Rose Theatre Kingston and is presented in association with Northern Stage and supported by a grant from the Royal Theatrical Support Trust (RTST).
Directed by 2025 RTST Sir Peter Hall Director Award winner Lily Dyble.
