Notes: from novel by Jane Austen | ||||
Synopsis: Jane Austen's novels have been endlessly adapted for TV, film and theatre with mixed success. Austen's sharp take on 19th-century society and verbal interplay especially lends itself to theatrical interpretation; Mansfield Park in particular offers a host of colourful characters in dramatic exchanges, a self-contained setting and even a play set within the story. Lowly Fanny Price has been catapulted into the high society of her relations, the Bertram family of Mansfield Park, where love triangles, scandal and tests of morality ensue Zena Alkayat, Metro London | ||||
