Aquila Theatre’s Wuthering Heights

Tickets: $35, $45

Aquila Theatre brings to life Emily Bronte’s classic story of
all-consuming passion with its new production of Wuthering Heights.
 
The
novel, one of the most famous works of world literature, was first
published in 1847 under a pseudonym and is Emily Bronte’s only work.
Wuthering Heights recounts the tale of ill-fated lovers on the lonely
moors of northern England. Heathcliff and Catherine meet as children
when Catherine’s father brings the abandoned boy home to live with them.
The two grow up together, living freely on the moors while Heathcliff
is tormented by Catherine’s brother. When Catherine’s parents die, her
brother turns Heathcliff out, forcing him to live among the servants.
Catherine marries and the crushed Heathcliff disappears. Years later, a
wealthy Heathcliff returns, but is it too late for them?
 
Wuthering
Heights is a deep and wide story of passion, revenge, family, class,
and the supernatural. Over a century and a half later, Bronte’s magnum
opus remains incredibly moving. Bringing its signature style and dynamic
approach, Aquila re-imagines one of the most famous love stories ever
told with this heart wrenching new production. Aquila Theatre is
renowned for its ability to adapt works of classical literature into
enthralling and mesmerizing live performances. Impeccable design and a
unique physical style combine with a marvelous cast to make Wuthering
Heights an exquisite and captivating theatrical experience.
