Jane Austen's
Emma
Adapted to the stage
by
Leeann Alena Moe
Emma Woodhouse is a young, beautiful, witty, and privileged woman in Regency England. She lives on an estate in Surrey in the village of Highbury with her father, a hypochondriac who is excessively concerned for the health and safety of his loved ones. Emma's friend and only critic is the gentlemanly George Knightley, her neighbor from the adjacent estate of Donwell, and brother of her elder sister Isabella's husband. As the play opens, Emma has just attended the wedding of Miss Taylor, her best friend and former governess. Having introduced Miss Taylor to her future husband, Mr. Weston, Emma takes credit for their marriage, and decides that she rather likes matchmaking. After a few interesting attempts, she suddenly finds that she is in love with George Knightley, one of the gentlemen she is tying to match with her new friend, Harriet Smith.
