Charlotte Brontë 
Jane Eyre (NHB Modern Plays) 
(Chris Bush stage version)

Jane Eyre may be poor, obscure, plain and little, but she has heart and soul – and plenty of it.
Chris Bush’s witty and fleet-footed adaptation lays bare the beating heart of Charlotte Brontë’s classic novel, whilst staying true to its revolutionary spirit.
With actor-musicians, playful doubling, and a plethora of nineteenth-century pop hits, it was first produced at the Stephen Joseph Theatre, Scarborough, and the New Vic Theatre, Newcastle-under-Lyme, in 2022, directed by Zoë Waterman.
