| Summary: | "Helen Edmundson's stage adaptation of Mary Webb's 1917 novel Gone to Earth was first performed by Shared Experience Theatre Company at the Gardner Arts Centre, Brighton on 25 March 2004 and subsequently at the Yvonne Arnaud Theatre, Guildford; Nuffield Theatre, Southampton; Cambridge Arts Theatre; Thoresby Riding Stables; Bristol Old Vic; Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith, and Oxford Playhouse. The play tells the story of Hazel, an innocent and free-spirited seventeen-year-old child of nature living in rural Shropshire. But when both the local squire Jack Reddin and the altruistic minister Edward Marston fall in love with her, she is drawn into a world of earthly passions which threatens to destroy her - as simply and relentlessly as a Greek tragedy."-- |
