Jane Austen’s Sense & Sensibility adapted by Kate Hamill is a work of romantic fiction, better known as a comedy of manners.

Sense and Sensibility is set in southwest England, London and Kent between 1792 and 1797 and portrays the life and loves of the Dashwood sisters, Elinor and Marianne. The novel follows the young ladies to their new home, a meagre cottage on a distant relative's property, where they experience love, romance and heartbreak.
The philosophical resolution of the novel is ambiguous: the reader must decide whether sense and sensibility have truly merged.

Reviews

No troupe in New York these days rides the storytelling momentum of theater more resourcefully or enthusiastically than Bedlam… high-octane Austen… Ms. Hamill and Mr. Tucker have sidestepped the problem by transposing Austen into the key of Dickens. Theirs is a bouncy, jaunty take on Austen, with a 10-member cast taking on an assortment of roles that are always clearly defined, sometimes as graphically as caricatures by the Dickens illustrator Phiz.”

“Bedlam theatre company works genuine miracles.”
