Jane Austen's Persuasion: A Musical Drama

Original Adaptation by Barbara Landis, with music from Jane Austen's manuscripts.

A new musical adaptation of one of Jane Austen's most admired novels - the story of a woman who has loved and lost and gets a second chance. One of the most powerful love stories ever written, this fully staged rendition of Jane Austen's novel will transport you back in time with a 10-piece chamber orchestra, beautiful Regency costumes, and world-champion Irish dancers!

"This story of Anne Elliot's second chance at love is told with such wit and life that I predict that this diamond will be remounted for years to come." (Lori Davis, Chicago Stage Style, Jane Austen Society of North America)

"No 'Persuasion' needed to see this Chicago treat...Chamber Opera Chicago's production was a treat for the eyes and ears...astounding!" (Emily Scotcher, Isle of Wight County Press)
