Event Description
“I am going to take a heroine whom no one but myself will much like”
Marking the 250th anniversary of Jane Austen’s birth, Theatre Royal Bath productions presents this new stage adaptation of her famous comedy of manners, Emma.
The beautiful and high-spirited Emma Woodhouse is determined that she will never marry but enjoys meddling in her friends’ and neighbours’ relationships. When her confidante and former governess, Miss Taylor, marries Mr Weston, Emma, having introduced the pair, takes credit for the success and decides that a future in matchmaking lies before her.
Thus begins a comic journey through the lives and loves of the eponymous character’s friends and neighbours, depicting the burgeoning Regency social scene of Bath and Weymouth. But as the romantic web she weaves amongst her friends becomes ever more entangled, will Emma herself get swept up in true love’s wake…?
