Emma
From the novel by Jane Austen
Adapted by Michael Bloom
Directed by Dawne Swearingen

Obsessed with romance but utterly clueless about her own feelings, Emma Woodhouse is one of literature's most delightful heroines. When her matchmaking mischief invariably misfires, Emma must navigate the choppy course of true love with a generous heart as her only guide. Funny and fulfilling, Austen's 19th-century masterpiece comes to sparkling life in this charming new adaptation.

April 12-14, 19-21, 2012 - 7:30 p.m. each night
Talk-back April 13
