Happy Spring from FCT!
Fauquier Community Theatre Presents:
Jane Eyre
 Some stories stand the test of time and Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre is one of them.

Heartache and Hope
Charlotte Bronte's great love story comes to life with music to lift your heart and set your spirit soaring. This beloved tale of secrets and the lies that secrets create, of unimaginable hope and unspoken passion, reminds us what it is to fall deeply, truly and completely in love. Nominated for five Tony Awards, Jane Eyre explores religion, sexuality and protofeminism, all while enchanting audiences with a timeless love story.

Jane's story begins in Gateshead, where she is in the unfortunate care of her cruel Aunt Sarah and cousin John, as per her uncle's dying wish. The miserable young orphan is finally rescued when she is sent away to attend Lowood School for Girls. After six years, Jane leaves Lowood and is shortly hired as a governess at Thornfield Hall. Here quiet yet willful Jane Eyre meets Mr. Edward Rochester, thus beginning her passionate and heart-wrenching journey, with a relationship that has many faces and secrets, leading Jane to encounter mystery and love, laughter and heartbreak, trial and triumph.
 
FCT opens its curtain to the musical, Jane Eyre, on Friday, April 29 at 8 pm with more performances on April 30, May 1, 6, 7, 8, 13, 14, 15.
