Outdoor theatre: Emma - BH Monday 25 August (Gates 6pm, performance 7pm)

Ever the matchmaker and never the match? So seems to be the case for Emma Woodhouse… 

Bring a picnic and sit back, relax & enjoy a performance in front of the romantic ruins.
Suitable for audiences of all ages.

And yet Emma remains more than content to help see that those around her are paired off into advantageous alliances for all concerned. In fact, she fancies herself rather good in the role of matchmaker. But, after an ill-advised union leads to heartbreak and bitterness, can Emma learn the greatest lesson in love? That romance is not something that can be forced and the most propitious matches always make themselves…

This Summer, critically acclaimed theatre company This Is My Theatre brings Jane Austen’s classic tale to life in a stunning one-act adaptation to celebrate the author’s 250th anniversary year.

Packed with rivalries, regrets and, of course, plenty of romance, our production is sure to spread joy this Summer!
