Jane Eyre: the musical

The Minneapolis Musical Theatre (MMT) presents the area premiere of Jane Eyre: the musical. With a book by John Caird (Les Miserables, Nicholas Nickleby), based on the original classic novel by Charlotte Bronte, and music and lyrics by Paul Gordon, Jane Eyre: the musical was nominated for five (5) Tony Awards, including Best Musical, during the 2000-2001 theatre season.

One of the greatest love stories of all time is transformed into this major new Broadway musical. True to its 19th century origins and the original novel by Charlotte Bronte, Jane Eyre: the musical is a lavish Victorian banquet of emotions; passion, faith, forgiveness, and – most of all – the eternal healing power of an all-consuming love. Jane Eyre’s sweeping love story is breath-taking in its scope and beauty, steeped in rich tradition and overflowing with joy. Filled with soaring melodies, the score embodies a romantic lyricism uncommon in the modern Broadway musical. It is an inspiring musical that will delight and amaze the entire family. Steven J. Meerdink directs, with musical direction by Kevin Hansen.

An additional performance has been added on Monday, March 14 at 7:30pm. The final Sundayperformance is a matinee at 2:30 p.m.
