“I am no bird; and no net ensnares me”

A Rose Theatre, Mercury Theatre Colchester, and Storyhouse Chester production in association with Northern Stage and supported by a grant from The Royal Theatrical Support Trust.

Directed by 2025 RTST Sir Peter Hall Director Award-winner Lily Dyble
Based on Sally Cookson, Mike Akers and the original company’s adaptation of Charlotte Brontë’s novel

One woman’s fight for a life that is worthy of her courage and a love that is worthy of her heart.

Orphaned as a young girl, the passionate and sensitive Jane longs to escape the clutches of her cruel aunt.

Freedom beckons when she is offered the job of a governess in the house of the brooding and secretive Mr Rochester.

As intrigue turns to attraction, Jane finds herself drawn in by Rochester’s mercurial charm. But when the truth finally comes out, she will be forced to choose between the man she wants, and the woman she wants to be.
