Jane Eyre at the Octagon Theatre
And if this production is a foretaste of what is to come, then it will indeed be a special year for this wonderful theatre.
Jessica Baglow and Michael Peavoy rise to the occasion with impeccable performances as Jane Eyre and Mr Rochester in this imaginative presentation of the Charlotte Bronte classic. Credit must therefore also go to Janys Chambers and Lorna French who came up with this latest adaptation but in turn they must share the credit with the whole creative team who brought all their talents to bear on bringing out what is delivered here.

“Jane Eyre” runs until February 10th. Tickets are available on 01204-520661
