Outdoor Theatre: Sense and Sensibility

With Shaw's Corner as the backdrop, DOT Productions presents the Jane Austen classic: ‘Sense & Sensibility’

  • Booking essential

2025 marks the 250th anniversary year of Jane Austen, and we celebrate by delving into the world of one of her finest novels.

The Dashwood sisters have a very different approach to their love lives. Elinor has much more Sense, but Marianne has a great deal of Sensibility. Whilst uninterested in the affections of a middle-aged man Marianne just can’t help herself when a dashing young hero appears on the scene.

Hero’s, heartbreak and debonair villains, all topped off with a dashing duel, will remind you why Austen was a master of her craft.

A cast of five actors and DOTS ‘renowned comedic style make this comedy of manners a production not to be missed.

The performance starts at 7.00pm and ends at 9.00pm. Doors open at 6.30pm.

Tickets are £19.
