Wise Children's WUTHERING HEIGHTS @ The Wallis

In a production shot through with music, dance, passion, and hope, Emma Rice (Brief Encounter, Tristan & Yseult) transforms Emily Brontë’s masterpiece into an intoxicating story of revenge for our time. Rescued from the Liverpool docks as a child, Heathcliff is taken to live at Wuthering Heights, where he finds a kindred spirit in Catherine, and a fierce love ignites. When they are forced apart, a brutal chain of events is unleashed.

@nytimesCritic's Pick:

"Emma Rice's glorious stage adaptation of Emily Brontë's novel is a feat of storytelling." - The New York Times

"Landing a first impression that distills the essence of a character is a rare art, and one of many things that the quick-witted, nimble-bodied company of Wise Children’s wondrous Wuthering Heights does exceptionally well." - The New York Times

This really deserves to be released as a film of the performance. Stunning.

I saw this production yesterday afternoon at the Holland Festival at the De La Mar Theatre! Thank you for the brilliant performance from every cast member and the band. It was captivating and electric, and the stage design was every changing; my eyes never left it! I was moved to tears twice by the powerful acting and laughed so much that even today, I feel thrilled by my experience! So creative on every level; I can't wait to see another performance from this group!
