theatrics at mansfield park

Created and directed by Joan Bryans

Inspired by the Austens who regularly put on entertainments for their family and friends to brighten the dark winter days, you will be welcomed into the warmth – of a blazing fire, a hot drink, and above all of the wit and cheer of the entertainment themselves.   Join the Austen family as they entertain you with music, song, poetry, and a theatrical – this one based on the work of Jane’s Mansfield Park:

Meet the Bertram family. While father is away the play’s the thing. Behind the guise of theatricals romance, temptation and indecorum reign.  Will Edmund, with Fanny Price’s help,  win the battle against such goings on or will he succumb to the oh-so-tempting Miss Mary Crawford?
