A brand new adaptation brings Emily Bronte’s passionate and spellbinding tale of forbidden love and revenge to life on stage.
Set on the wild, windswept Yorkshire moors, Wuthering Heights is the tempestuous story of free-spirited Catherine and dark, brooding Heathcliff. As children running wild and free on the moors, Cathy and Heathcliff are inseparable.
As they grow up their affection deepens into a passionate love, but Cathy lets her head rule her heart as she chooses to marry the wealthy Edgar Linton.
Heathcliff flees broken-hearted only to return seeking terrible vengeance on those he holds responsible, with epic and tragic results.
April De Angelis is one of the UK’s most innovative dramatists. Her plays have included A Laughing Matter at the National Theatre, Hush at the Royal Court and The Warwickshire Testimony for the RSC.

Leslie from Solihull
As a member of the Bronte Society for many years am looking forward to yet another production of Wuthering Heights of which there have been many on stage,film and TV. Do have a look at Bronte Museum website. Visit Haworth if you can,a little under 3 hour journey from Solihull. Recommended initial reading, The Life of Charlotte Bronte by Mrs Gaskell and The Brontes by Juliet Barker. Fall in love with the family and you will have years of pleasure to come.
