Persuasion By Jane Austen - TIMT in Burham

St Mary's Church, Burham, Kent

This is my Theatre (TIMT) presents...Persuasion By Jane Austen

St Mary's Church, Burham - Persuasion

Tue 18 June 2024 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Anne Elliott is persuaded to reject Frederick Wentworth by her family and friends but when the Elliott's circumstances alter and Wentworth returns 8 years later, as a commended naval officer no less, old sparks are rekindled… But can either be convinced to give love a second chance?

Too many characters and not enough actors will see this much-loved Austen novel brought to life in a comedic and potentially hat-astrophic production. In a similarly choreographed, character-swapping style to our critically acclaimed productions of The Importance of Being Earnest (2018), The Three Musketeers (2020) and A Comedy of Errors (2022), audiences will love this truly unique adaptation!

Written by Jane Austen

Adapted by Ethan Taylor

Directed by Sarah Slator
