Honest people do not hide their deeds…

Wuthering Heights is one of the literary classics and this March a brand new stage adaptation comes to Titchfield Festival Theatre.

When orphaned Heathcliff is brought to Wuthering Heights as a child, he can little imagine what kind of torment young Catherine Earnshaw will bring into his life, even twenty years after she is gone.

Once an outcast, Heathcliff uses his new found wealth and intelligence to exact revenge on the two families that destroyed him. But whatever he does, he finds he cannot escape Cathy...

Set on the bleak Yorkshire moors, Emily Brontë’s first and only novel is a tale of obsession, romance, and revenge, which has haunted readers for generations. Now brought to life in this new stage adaptation, Wuthering Heights will have you wondering if the dead really stay buried.

Charly Armstrong is director and author of this version and said, “I read Wuthering Heights for the first time last year and I found it fascinating, inspiring me to write a stage adaptation. The characters, such as the principal leads Cathy and Heathcliff, are wonderfully complicated and dark, possessing many different motives that shape their relationships with others.

“I love the macabre feel of Wuthering Heights, so there are plenty of ghostly and gothic elements within the play. It’s also fair to say it is more of a ghost story than a romance. Wuthering Heights is a great piece of storytelling – and I want the audience to feel like they have opened a book and stepped into it.”

Wuthering Heights is part of Titchfield Festival Theatre’s New Play Season. The cast includes a number of new and younger actors making their stage debuts at Titchfield. 

Wuthering Heights opens on Wednesday 4th March until Saturday 14th March 2020 at 7.30pm in the Oak Theatre, Titchfield Festival Theatre, St Margarets Lane, Titchfield PO14 4BG.
