Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of any sort of disappointed love. Catherine Morland (Rebecca Banatvala) knows little of the world, but who needs real-life experience when you have novels to guide you? Catherine seizes her chance to escape her claustrophobic family and join the smart set in Bath. Between balls and parties spent with the aloof Henry Tilney (Sam Newton), she meets sophisticated, intoxicating Isabella Thorpe Iz (AK Golding), to her friends and so Caths secret adventure begins. Zoe Cooper returns to the OT following the hit premieres of Jess and Joe Forever and Out of Water. Cooper infuses the plot and spirit of Austens original novel with her unique contemporary voice, resulting in a queer retelling fizzing with imagination, packed full of humour and brimming with love. A co-production with Octagon Theatre Bolton, the Stephen Joseph Theatre Scarborough and Theatre by the Lake
