Set Design by Jacqueline and Richard Penrod A moving new musical adaptation of one of Jane Austen’s most admired novels – the story of a woman who has lost at love and gets a second chance. In PERSUASION, Anne Elliot has rejected a proposal of marriage from the one man she truly loved, Captain Frederick Wentworth. She was persuaded by her godmother that Captain Wentworth was unworthy, but after a separation of nearly a decade, he returns from sea with both rank and fortune. Anne is nearly an old maid and her once rich family is on the verge of bankruptcy. Can Anne win him back? Can he forgive her for breaking off their engagement rather than following her heart? And can their lost love be rekindled?
A musical drama filled with traditional music from Jane Austen’s time, Irish and period dance, plus striking sets and projected scenery of England, this promises to be an authentic rendering of Jane Austen’s novel that will transport you back in time!
