Through words, music and dance, Sarah Finch and musician Tamsin Lewis weave a dramatic tapestry of Jane Austen's life, letters and her novel "Pride and Prejudice". This performance will take place at 8pm on Saturday 21 May 2005 in The Contact Centre, Hambalt Road.
Jane Austen wrote long and descriptive letters to her beloved sister, Cassandra, with whom she shared everything. In fact after Jane's death Cassandra burnt many of the more intimate letters.![janeaustenp3[1].jpg janeaustenp3[1].jpg](/images/stories/YoursEver/janeaustenp3%5B1%5D.jpg) Get to know Jane Austen's sense of fun, her obsession with anonymity, her sharp observations, giving an insight into the life of her times. Meet all the principal characters in 'Pride and Prejudice' and let them come to life - from the pompous Reverend Collins to the infinitely flappable Mrs Bennett, the most noble Lady Catherine de Bourgh, as well as her heroine, Elizabeth. Sarah played Jane Austen for the BBC adaptation of Fay Weldon’s book ‘Letters to Alice’ which was filmed in Jane Austen’s house in Chawton, Hampshire. The performance lasts 60 minutes. Tickets will cost £10 (£7 concession) and are available by calling 0208 660 9706. The proceeds will be shared between the work of the parish and a charity to be chosen by Sarah. Sarah and Tamsin are members of independant theatre company "the Lions part". The images on this page are reproduced with kind permission and copyright "the Lions part". |
