The Watsons at Wokingham Theatre
Overview
We have previously seen a Christmas Show and an Agatha Christie Drama here, it is a lovely little theatre with a bar all staffed by volunteers. The shows we have seen have been high quality and well produced, so why not join us for this play, based on Jane Austens incomplete novel Emma.
What happens when the writer loses the plot? Emma Watson is 19 and new in town. She’s been cut off by her rich aunt and dumped back in the family home. Emma and her sisters must marry, fast.
So far, so familiar. But there’s a problem: Jane Austen didn’t finish the story. Who will write Emma’s happy ending now? Based on her incomplete novel, this play asks: What can characters do when their author abandons them?
This amateur production of "The Watsons" is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
