Austen's Women

<Back

Some of the most rewarding and exciting moments from the complete works of Jane Austen, the queen of English Literature. Brought to the stage in a superb performance of extraordinary virtuosity by Rebecca Vaughan, thirteen of Austen’s beautifully observed women are assembled in one distillation of 19th century feminism.

From scenes of high comedy to moments of profound pathos, Vaughan takes us on a rich journey into Austen’s "two inches of ivory" – featuring Lizzy Bennet, Emma Woodhouse, Anne Elliot, the Dashwood Sisters and many more – as they fall in and out of love, make friends with some, alienate others and commit notorious improprieties!

"Vaughan's performance was unfaultable...this is a thoroughly enjoyable exploration of women & is thoroughly recommended" (Edinburgh Guide)
