Set in early 19th century rural England, this is the compelling and passionate story of Prue Sarn - a young woman with a facial disfigurement that is viewed with hostility by local people. Prue is an unlikely but timeless heroine who demonstrates the bravery and spirit of true beauty. How can she influence her brother to follow his heart and choose love over money? Will she ever fulfil her dream and win the love of the weaver, Kester Woodseaves. Precious Bane is performed in a unique portable dome that immerses the audience in an unforgettable dramatic experience, where visual effects, live music and song recreate the sights, sounds and smells of a bygone age. Against this intricate rural tapestry Prue’s powerful story unfolds as she fights to find love and acceptance for who she is.
