Wuthering Heights

The spectacle-happy British director Emma Rice—whose previous visits to St. Ann's Warehouse have included Brief Encounter, Tristan & Yseult and The Wild Bride—presents a musical adaptation of Emily Brontë's classic gothic novel, so that doomed lovers Heathcliff and Catherine can get their feelings out in song as they fling themselves around West Yorkshire. (Eat your heart out, Kate Bush!) The show, scored by Ian Ross and performed by Rice's company Wise Children, was embraced in London earlier this year. Puppetry, projections and a live band add to the more-is-moors aesthetic.
