Union College Theater and Dance Department presents You on the Moors Now, by Jaclyn Backhaus, directed by Jasmine Roth.What would happen if Elizabeth Bennet, Cathy Earnshaw, Jane Eyre, and Jo March leaped out of their novels and ran away together?
These four famous literary heroines of the nineteenth century reject the marriage proposals from their suitors, and instead set out on an epic adventure to find themselves and see the world! But when this radical act ignites a war between the heroines and their gentlemen callers, everything you know from these novels is turned upside down in a battle royale. As the ensemble journeys through the moors, our heroines grapple with love, anger, ambition, grief, and gender expectations of the past and present.
Join us for a wild, raucous romp that catapults through the worlds of Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen, Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë, Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë, and Little Women by Louisa May Alcott in a journey between the pages of these books and modern day.
Performances are May 29- June 1st at 7:30pm, and June 2nd at 2:00pm.
Please note this production contains strong language and adult themes, simulated violence and onstage character deaths, prop weapons, and loud noises.
