Aquila Theatre presents 'Sense & Sensibility' at MSU Riley Center

About this event

Aquila Theatre brings its inventive touch to a groundbreaking romantic comedy, Jane Austen's "Sense & Sensibility." After their father's death leaves them in reduced circumstances, the Dashwood sisters, levelheaded Elinor and passionate Marianne, repeatedly taste love only to have their hearts broken. Can they possibly find their way to a happy ending? Desiree Sanchez, Aquila Theatre's artistic director, directs this adaptation of the beloved 1811 novel. Her innovative use of space, movement, design and sound keep the story's ups and downs fresh and fun for contemporary audiences. Aquila Theatre, based in New York but rooted in England, is the perfect company to update this beloved classic. Tickets may be purchased online, by phone or in person at the MSU Riley Center Box Office. Click the "Link" below for more information.
