Emma - An Abbey Theatre Production

Centring on the charming, clever, flirtatious, and cunning title character, Emma follows the privileged lives and relationships of individuals from upper-class families in Georgian-Regency England. Skewering social norms of the day, it examines love, desire, class, and the effort it takes to sustain a life of luxury.

Ripping the bodice of tradition, Emma will thrill audiences with modern flourishes, a contemporary soundtrack and a period-but-playful retelling of the classic comedy of manners.

Adapted by Kate Hamill, Emma is directed by Claire O’Reilly, a Resident Director at the Abbey Theatre in 2022.
