Great Expectations Interest Evening - A Music & Drama Group Production

You are warmly invited to join us at the interest evening to find out how to be part of our exciting autumn production of Great Expectations.

Using only Charles Dickens’ extraordinary words and a chameleon ensemble of 13 actors, Neil Bartlett’s powerful stage version of this much-loved story brings its characters to thrilling theatrical life, set against breathtaking creative staging.

From its opening image of little Pip, alone on the windswept marshes, to the haunted darkness of Miss Haversham’s cobweb-strewn lair, this clever, highly theatrical and very different adaptation will take our audience on a journey right to the heart of Dickens’ great exploration of childhood terrors and hopes – and ultimately of adult dreams and regrets. Pip learns that ambition and material success can be empty without love, loyalty, and humility.

Come along to find out more and how to get involved. If you are unable to make this event or have any other queries, please email us at stage@shaftesburyartscentre.org.uk.
