A Jane Austen play you don’t know the ending to? That’s all right, neither did she.
THE WATSONS
Written by Laura Wade Directed by Matthew Chapman 1 - 10 August 2025 Little Theatre www.trybooking.com/CXJIN
The Watsons are in crisis. Cut off financially from her benefactor, the youngest, Emma, returns to her dying father and spinster sisters with the task of finding a husband - and finding one now. Matchmakers, match breakers, cads, stuffy clergymen and an overactive rumour mill all conspire as wedding bells ring in the distance and Emma eyes off a certain man…
…and that’s where we leave it. See, Jane Austen never finished the story. So it’s up to Emma, with the help of modern-day Laura, a jaded playwright with a rapidly approaching deadline, to find her own happy ending…
And that’s where the fun really begins.
