“I am Heathcliff! Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.”

The Yorkshire moors tell an epic story of love, revenge and redemption.
 

Rescued from the Liverpool docks as a child, Heathcliff is adopted by the Earnshaws and taken to live at Wuthering Heights. He finds a kindred spirit in Catherine Earnshaw and a fierce love ignites. When forced apart, a brutal chain of events is unleashed.

Shot through with music, dance, passion and hope, Emma Rice (Romantics Anonymous, Brief Encounter) transforms Emily Brontë’s masterpiece into a powerful and uniquely theatrical experience.  

Lucy McCormick (Post Popular) and Ash Hunter (Hamilton) lead the company of performers and musicians in this intoxicating revenge tragedy for our time.

***** The Times “…emotionally epic entertainment from Emma Rice”

**** The Stage “…Theatrical magic”

**** The Telegraph “…a cast of characters that make Succession's Roy family look like The Waltons”

***** The Daily Mail “…a wildly imaginative, exhilarating piece of theatre”
