JANE EYRE -- a thrilling new theatrical adaptation February 14, 2008

In this new theatrical adaptation by N.G. McClernan, the story opens with Rochester’s plaintive cry for his beloved Jane and unfolds in flashbacks to reveal the heroine’s transformation from a mistreated little girl into a woman in control of her own destiny. True to the original work, JANE EYRE illuminates the timeless story of the lovers as they struggle to overcome fate.
