A Rose Theatre Production
A play by Ava Pickett
Based on the novel by Jane Austen
Directed by Christopher Haydon
This irresistible new adaptation swaps drawing room duets for dance floor-fillers to present this classic tale of matchmaking and mischief as you’ve never seen it before.
Emma Woodhouse thinks she has it all figured out.
Fresh from Oxford University and back in her hometown for the summer, Emma is ready to do what she does best: sort out everyone else’s lives, whether they like it or not.
Her closest friend Harriet is a total dating disaster, her father keeps disappearing on mysterious errands, and George Knightley refuses to stop pointing out the flaws in her flawless plans. But Emma knows best… right?
Join us as we celebrate the 250th anniversary of Austen’s birth with this classic story of romance, friendship, and the tricky business of figuring out what truly makes us happy.
‘Sparkling dialogue and thrilling, charismatic writing, that speaks across the centuries’ - Susan Smith Blackburn Prize judges on Pickett’s 1536
★★★★ ‘One of the most successful page-to-stage adaptations in years. Clear, cool, compulsive’ - WhatsOnStage on Haydon’s production of Never Let Me Go
Supported by Eleanor Lloyd Productions and Eilene Davidson Productions
