“It is a story that absorbs you, creating powerful imagery that stays with you long after you turn the last page. In my adaptation of this timeless tale, I have brought to life the key elements of the narrative, focusing on the intensity and devastation of the relationship between Cathy and Heathcliff.”
The music is composed by Claude-Michel Schonberg, known for the Broadway and West End hits ‘Miss Saigon’ and ‘Les Miserables’.
