Holy Trinity Church, York - Jane Eyre (5pm)

“I am no bird; and no net ensnares me; I am a free human being with an independent will.”

Orphaned and alone, Jane Eyre grows up in a world that seeks to silence her spirit. Defiant in her search for freedom, belonging, and love, she finds herself at Thornfield Hall - where the enigmatic Mr. Rochester hides dark secrets behind its walls. 

Passion, mystery, and resilience collide in this sweeping story of self-discovery and courage, brought to life in a bold new adaptation - with traditional folk music woven throughout - of Charlotte Brontë’s timeless classic!
