Wurtele Thrust Stage

A fresh adaptation of Austen’s treasured novel.

Full of humor and emotional depth, a fresh adaptation of Austen’s treasured novel opens the Guthrie season in a bright, bold and theatrical way. Set in late 18th-century England, Sense and Sensibility centers on sisters Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, whose lives are turned upside down when their father passes away suddenly, leaving them penniless and with reputations at stake. Together the women must learn to mix sense with sensibility to find happiness in a society where love is ruled by money.

adapted by Kate Hamill
based on the novel by Jane Austen
directed by Sarah Rasmussen
