Synopsis

A fresh, fast-paced, and wildly theatrical take on Jane Austen’s beloved classic! When the Dashwood sisters are left financially and socially vulnerable after their father’s death, they must navigate love, heartbreak, and the rigid expectations of Regency-era society. Elinor, the embodiment of sense, and Marianne, the spirit of sensibility, face romantic entanglements that challenge their ideals and test their bond as sisters. With sharp wit, bold characters, and inventive staging, Kate Hamill’s Sense and Sensibility delivers a vibrant, comic, and emotionally rich experience for modern audiences.
