The Watsons
About
In Laura Wade’s bold and playful adaptation of Jane Austen’s unfinished novel, The Watsons dips beneath the surface to imagine what might have happened. As the play opens we meet a myriad of familiar Austen characters: young women in search of a husband, flirtatious suitors, stuffy aristocrats, serious clergymen, dazzling army officers, formidable ladies of the manor, as well as a precocious child. All familiar territory – but what happens when the writer loses the plot allowing the characters to introduce plans of their own? The result is clever, playful and very funny. Characters boldly go in search of their own endings which delight, occasionally horrify but constantly entertain.Dates
