Jane Austen’s most celebrated female characters come to life in this bold revisiting of her ‘two inches of ivory’. In scenes of high comedy and moments of profound pathos, Lizzy Bennet, Emma Woodhouse, Marianne Dashwood and many more, fall in love, alienate their friends and commit notorious improprieties. Using only Austen’s words, Rebecca Vaughan offers a brilliant distillation of 19th century feminism.

‘Running for Glory’ is a unique blend of theatre and sporting spectacle, following the lives of an elite group of British athletes (featured in the film ‘Chariots of Fire’) as they blaze their way to glory at the 1924 Paris Olympics.
Young track stars Harold Abrahams and Eric Liddell could not have been more different as sportsmen and individuals.  While Abrahams was one of the first exponents of professional training, Liddell won astonishing victories on little more than blind faith.
