The Moors

T1262582290
"The moors are a savage place, and we who live here, despite our attempts to cling to a modicum of civilization, we find ourselves often forced to contend with savagery." A young governess arrives at a mansion on the bleak and windswept moors - but there's no sign of the child she's been employed to look after... The Moors is playwright Jen Silverman's gripping Gothic story about isolation, ambition, and the struggle to be seen. Inspired by the letters of Charlotte Bronte, The Moors is an irreverent period drama all about the present, a macabre thriller with a queer thread running through its centre, and a delightfully dark comedy perfect for when the nights are drawing in.
