"Award-winning actress Linda Marlowe (The World's Wife, Berkoff's Women) stars in Miss Havisham's Expectations as the iconic jilted bride 'Norma' Havisham, forever in her wedding dress alongside the stopped clock and untouched cake. Prepare to be amazed as she invites us to share her side of the story - a tale of passion, vengeance and more than a little magic.

The show, which had a successful run at the 2012 Edinburgh Fringe, is an original take on one of Dickens' best loved novels. Wrestling with love, loss and ageing our heroine replays episodes from the novel from her perspective - at times darkly funny as she explodes the stereotype with laudanum-fuelled relish. Drawing on the text of Great Expectations, biographical material from Dickens' own life and original material by writer-director Di Sherlock, Miss Havisham's Expectations is a roller-coaster ride through what it means to be a woman both then and now."
