In this witty and engaging stage adaptation of Jane Austen’s beloved novel, Catherine Morland, a young and impressionable heroine, is invited to stay at the mysterious Northanger Abbey. While there, she becomes even more enamoured with gothic novels and begins to imagine that sinister secrets lie within the abbey’s walls.
As Catherine’s romantic fantasies lead her astray, she navigates the complexities of love, friendship, and societal expectations, all while discovering the difference between fantasy and reality. With Austen’s sharp social commentary, this adaptation captures the charm, humour, and intrigue of 18th-century England, highlighting the conflicts between youthful imagination and the realities of life.
Don't miss out on this wonderful evening of local talent and entertainment.
