Yours Ever, Jane devised and performed by Sarah Finch is an elegant and witty look at Regency England through her letters to her beloved sister and confidante, Cassandra; her sharp observations gave an insight into the life of her times and the delightful music evokes the the elegance of the period. This production celebrates 200 years since the publication of Pride and Prejudice.

Sarah Finch portrays Jane and a host of her characters in many episodes you will remember – and some you may have yet to discover. Sarah recently flew out to Canada to perform for the St Lawrence Shakespeare Festival:

‘ The performance by Sarah Finch was outstanding with both shows receiving standing ovations…. and has helped introduce the festival to a whole new audience and we hope many of them will come back in the summer.’
