About the Show:

In Kate Hamill’s witty and wildly theatrical adaptation of Sense and Sensibility, Jane Austen’s beloved Dashwood sisters navigate love, heartbreak, and social scandal in Regency-era England—with a modern comedic twist. When their family fortune is suddenly lost, sensible Elinor and passionate Marianne must rely on cunning, courage, and each other to find happiness. Bursting with gossip, gallantry, and gloriously giddy romance, Hamill’s fast-paced, inventive take on Austen’s classic is a heartfelt romp that delights both die-hard fans and newcomers alike.

“Goofy, joyous, and deeply moving… highly engaging and imaginative… Adapted by Kate Hamill, the show puts a premium on clever and vivid storytelling. But this ‘Sense & Sensibility’ stays faithful to its source through all the cheekiness.”
