The Abbey Theatre presents a bold reimagining of Jane Austen's Emma, adapted by Kate Hamill and directed by Claire O’Reilly. This contemporary interpretation blends a playful retelling of the classic comedy of manners with modern elements, set against the backdrop of Georgian-Regency England. The story follows the charming Emma as she navigates love, desire, and societal expectations within the privileged circles of her time. With an engaging cast of talented Irish actors, this production promises to electrify audiences from November 22, 2024, to January 25, 2025.
