Mansfield Park – The Watermill Theatre and Two Gents Co-Production

About

Join us in the beautiful grounds of Gilbert White's Garden for this inventive and intelligent outdoor production with a fresh perspective on Jane Austen's classic romance.

When young Fanny Price is sent to live with her wealthy cousins, she quickly grows from a timid child into a clever, witty young woman with a fine moral compass. At Mansfield Park, Fanny meets the frivolous Crawfords. They introduce her to a world of reckless flirtation, unrequited love, and decadence.

As their antics escalate, Fanny is led further astray until her uncle's departure to visit his plantation in Antigua. Forced to confront the source of her family's wealth and its true cost, Fanny must ask some difficult questions. Where does she belong? Will she ever find love? And what does it take to be the heroine of your own life?

In collaboration with Two Gents Productions, The Watermill brings this rousing take on Jane Austen's well-known romance on tour, revealing a different perspective on a classic story.
