Event
12th November 2026 - 14th November 2026
Buxton Drama League presents Persuasion (James) by Jane Austen, adapted by Jeff James with James Yeatman
What would you do if you accidentally ran into the one who got away... or rather the one your family persuaded you to run away from?
About
12th November 2026 - 14th November 2026
Would you hide away in your familial duties? Find someone new to make them jealous? Pretend you've totally moved on (even though your heart is doing dial up noises)?
Anne thought she had it all figured out until swoon-worthy Wentworth walks straight back into her life like it's no big deal. Now she's juggling family disputes, unspoken confessions, and one too many "coincidental" run-ins, all while trying to keep her cool (and failing adorably)
Because sometimes love deserves a second chance... even if it comes with questionable fashion choices, and a whole lot of mixed signals.
