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 inventive staging of Brontë's masterpiece was first staged by Bristol Old Vic in 2014, when the story was performed over two evenings. Director Sally Cookson now brings her celebrated production to the National Theatre, presented as a single, exhilarating performance.

The Brontë Sisters, Charlotte, Emily, and Anne are all celebrated writers whose novels are still a hallmark of passion and romance as well as literary masterpieces. In Agnes Grey, Anne Brontë draws from her own experience as a governess to tell the story of a young woman who cares for the unruly and spoiled children of the upper class. In The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, a young woman flees her alcoholic husband and takes refuge in a small village where she is the subject of much speculation. Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë tells the story of a young woman who becomes governess and is pulled into the scandalous secret of the man she works for even as she falls in love with him. Written by Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights is the story of the interconnected lives of the families that live at Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange, centering on the relationship between Heathcliff and Catherine. Unrequited love and jealousy drive Heathcliff to seek vengeance with unrelenting determination.
