Emma Woodhouse, beautiful, clever, and rich, has very littIe to concern her. When her governess marries advantageously, Emma congratulates herself on her great success as a matchmaker. So, when she meets the pretty, naive, and sociaIly inferior Harriet, Emma is ready to practise her skills again - ignoring warnings of the harm she couId cause from friend and neighbour, Mr Knightley.
As she sets about meddIing with the affairs of the viIlage of Highbury, Emma carves a traiI of confusion, disappointment and disaster that risks Harriet’s happiness, and much to her surprise, her own happiness too.
This fresh, funny, and perceptive adaptation by Sandy WeIch, accIaimed writer of North and South, Jane Eyre, and Our MutuaI Friend, brings Jane Austen’s comic masterpiece about vilIage Iife, Iove, and self awareness to life with a steIIar cast. As our heroine embarks on a journey that challenges her naivety and her social preconceptions it Ieads her to reaIise that she has become so focused on the Iives of others that she has failed to see what’s in front of her own eyes.. |
