Far From the Madding Crowd

Capricious, independent and beautiful Bathsheba Everdene inherits and manages her uncle’s farm. She is courted by three infatuated suitors: an honest, loyal and capable shepherd; a womanising and charming Sergeant; and a lonely, wealthy farmer. Who will she choose? If any of them? She plays with all their hearts to devastating and dramatic effect.

Far from the Madding Crowd demonstrates live, vibrant theatre at its very best.

Thomas Hardy’s masterpiece about love, class and gender roles is set against the rural landscape of Victorian England and is thrillingly brought to life in a new adaptation by the acclaimed Conn Artists Theatre Company, performed by an ensemble cast accompanied by music and songs of the period.

“a riveting example of ensemble theatre at its very best.” ★★★★★

(The Argus on Silas Marner)

“strong, vivid and emotional story telling.” ★★★★

(Remote Goat on Silas Marner)

“Conn Artists has made regional theatre feel in ruder health overnight.” ★★★★
