PlayKit | Young Jane Eyre
by Marisha Chamberlain
Based on the story by Charlotte Bronte
In this adaptation of the first nine chapters of Charlotte Bronte's masterpiece, 10-year-old Jane Eyre is sent away from her uncaring aunt’s home and thrust into the strange and harsh world of Lowood School. There Jane is confronted with meager living conditions: little food, somber clothing, and strict rules. At first, she only finds joy in school books, but then she comes to know a kind teacher, Miss Temple, and a gentle classmate, Helen. Many joys are discovered in her friendships but above all, Jane learns to cherish life and look without fear towards her future.
“Marisha Chamberlain’s script remains close enough to the novel to retain the story’s captivating strength, but the play isn’t so wordy that it might lose a ten-year-old’s attention.” – Minnesota Daily
