Nearly
any size and type of space - a living room or garden, a
traditional theatre, a school or community center auditorium, the
sanctuary of a church - can accommodate Jane Eyre. The
lighting is simple - a general pool of light and no internal light
cues. No sound equipment is required. The only furniture is
a bookstand (which tours with the show) and a wooden chair without arms
or a piano bench (which must be provided by the presenter). There
are no props or costume changes. Also, there is no
intermission, though one can be added if needed by the presenter.
Residency activities, including mini-performances with discussions,
lectures and readings related to the novel, and workshops and master
classes, are available. Fees vary, depending on the number of
performances and other activities. Special rates are available
for presenters who book a residency or collaborate with other
presenters in creating a tour for Jane Eyre.
While performances are traditionally booked at least one year in
advance, Jane Eyre is sometimes available for bookings on short
notice. Because of its wide appeal and the simplicity of the
show, it makes an excellent last minute replacement when another artist
or group has to cancel or when a "TBA" slot needs to be filled.
