This rollicking, ingeniously-theatrical new adaptation of the Jane Austen classic follows the Dashwood sisters - sensible Elinor and passionate Marianne as they pursue their quest for love and happiness. When they lose their fortune, marriage is their only hope but can love and marriage go together for women without money? Surrounding them is a company of shape-shifting actors who transform into characters, animals, and even scenery to bring Austen's story to life in this goofy, joyous and deeply moving play.
