Music directing, arranging, accompanying Beth Golison’s new musical adaptation of Jane Eyre. Free!

mrs. rochester: an autobiography is a new multi-genre musical adaptation/expansion of the classic novel Jane Eyre. We follow Jane's well-known story as she chooses between facing selfish happiness and unhappy selflessness. We uncover Bertha's lost narrative of disillusionment and transformational healing. This concert/reading will invite you to a landscape of folk, jazz, pop, and classic musical theatre, combined to create a dreamscape of feminine love, loss, and fury.
