CHAPTERHOUSE Theatre Company present Wuthering Heights at Hampton Court Castle tomorrow.
A brand new adaptation of Brontë’s unyielding story of love and obsession, Wuthering Heights is a classic love story set on the beautiful, mysterious wilderness of the Yorkshire moors. It has thrilled and entranced for generations and is now brought alive on stage in an adaptation by award winning writer Laura Turner, who says she feels honoured to have had the opportunity to adapt one of her all time favourite romantic novels.
“When Chapterhouse asked me to write an adaptation of Wuthering Heights for this season I was really thrilled because I first read the novel when I was 14 and had a really strong reaction. It’s a bit like Marmite - people either love it or hate it and I fell in love. It’s a challenging story to adapt, spanning two generations, but I hope that I have managed to instil all the passion and wildness of Emily Brontë’s masterpiece and that people fall for Catherine and Heathcliff just as I have.”
Wuthering Heights is at Hampton Court Castle on Friday, June 27 at 7.30pm. Tickets from Hampton Court ticket office on 01568 797777, Leominster Tourist Information Centre (01568 616460) or online at seetickets.com
