“Lady Susan Or The Captive Heart, A Jane Austen Bodice Ripper”
by Lynn Marie Macy.
This hilarious comic adaptation illuminates Jane Austen’s earliest novel “Lady Susan.” Manipulative, callous and cruel – the beautiful widow Lady Susan Vernon is on a manhunt. To restore her broken fortunes the greatest coquette in England sets out to hook a rich husband. She will stop at nothing to achieve this goal including forcing her own daughter Frederica into an unwanted marriage. Will Lady Susan’s weakness for pleasure derail her notorious intrigues? Literature’s greatest villainess is about to take center stage.
This reading is FREE and open to the public. No reservation is necessary.
