Opis

Orphaned at an early age, Jane Eyre leads a lonely life until she finds work as a governess at Thornfield Hall, where she meets the mysterious Mr Rochester and sees a ghostly woman who roams the halls by night.

Condensing the dramatic action of the classic novel, playwright Helen Jerome, as in her acclaimed adaptation of Jane Austens Pride and Prejudice, produces a thrilling and compelling stage version. Young Jane Eyre comes to Thornfield, the estate of the brooding Rochester, to be a governess to Adele, his child-ward. Rochester is an unhappy man with lunatic wife whom he must keep locked up. As Janes presence begins to lighten his mood, they come to an understanding which it is assumed will lead to marriage. However, Jane discovers Rochesters secret of the the locked room and leaves Thornfield, returning to discover that the lunatic has burned down the estate killing herself in the fire, leaving Rochester free to marry Jane.
