The Shaw Mansion11 Blinman StreetNew London, CTJane Eyre, an orphan in early nineteenth-century England, overcomes a loveless childhood to become governess to the ward of the enigmatic Mr. Rochester. Jane soon believes she’s found the home and the love she’s always yearned for, but Mr. Rochester’s dark secrets threaten to keep them apart. Blending gothic romance with a powerful story of personal growth, Jane Eyre explores one woman’s struggle to find love and independence despite barriers of gender, class, and circumstance. Leading the cast are Julie Butters of Salem, Mass., as Jane, Eric Michaelian of New London, Conn., as Mr. Rochester.“Jane is fiercely determined to control her own destiny and stay true to her convictions despite immense external pressure,” says Butters, who adapted Jane Eyre and, previously, Little Women for Flock. “That makes her as compelling today as in 1847 when the novel was published.”Originally set to be performed in New London’s historic Shaw Mansion in 2020, the production was waylaid due to the global pandemic and adapted into a Zoom film. Now in 2024, the show finally gets its live debut at the Shaw Mansion. This will be the first Shaw performance for Flock since 2019’s Pride & Prejudice.
