Synopsis:

Jane Eyre: National Theatre Live (screening)
a co-production with Bristol Old Vic
devised by the Company
based on the novel by Charlotte Brontë
★★★★★ "Aflame with passion. A picture of exultant feminism" – Observer
★★★★★ "Captures the beating heart of the novel. And then some" – Mail on Sunday
★★★★ "A joy to watch. Madeleine Worrall's passion sets the performance alight" – Time Out

Almost 170 years on, Charlotte Brontë's story of the trailblazing Jane is as inspiring as ever. This bold and dynamic production uncovers one woman's fight for freedom and fulfilment on her own terms.

From her beginnings as a destitute orphan, Jane Eyre's spirited heroine faces life's obstacles head-on, surviving poverty, injustice and the discovery of bitter betrayal before taking the ultimate decision to follow her heart.

This acclaimed re-imagining of Brontë's masterpiece was first staged by Bristol Old Vic in 2015, when the story was performed over two evenings, and then presented at the National Theatre as a single, exhilarating performance.

Please note that this is a screening of the theatre production, and not a live performance.
Rating and admission age to be advised.
