Sense and Sensibility

by Kate Hamill based on the novel by Jane Austen

A brilliantly funny adaptation of the classic novel, in which a group of nosy “Gossips” takes you on a whirlwind journey through the social conventions of Regency England.

When their father dies unexpectedly, the Dashwood sisters of Norland Park, sensible Elinor and hypersensitive Marianne, as well as their mother and younger sister are left almost impoverished. Legal customs being what they are, their former estate of Norland Park is passed on to their half-brother John and his wife Fanny – who try to get rid of them as quickly as possible.

Things start to look different, when Fanny’s brother Edward arrives for a visit and develops a friendship with Elinor. However, the mild-mannered gentleman may hide a secret… Then again, what is up with Mr Willoughby, whose charms Marianne cannot help but succumb to? And what is Colonel Brandon up to?
