“A score of translucent beauty – Joubert’s undoubted magnum opus,” comments conductor Kenneth Woods who led the English Symphony Orchestra in the premiere performance of Jane Eyre in concert in 2016. John Joubert's final opera, this bold adaptation of Charlotte Brontë's novel is now to be performed fully staged for the first time from 6 – 9 August, produced by Arcola Theatre & Green Opera as part of Grimeborn Opera in a new chamber version arranged by Thomas Ang. Here Jane’s journey unfolds through a dynamic cast of young performers directed by Eleanor Burke and conducted by Kenneth Woods.
