Great Expectations (Doran)
Bathsheba Doran
Great Expectations
by Charles Dickens, Wilbur Braun, Alice Chadwicke
Synopsis
Pip, a country boy who is apprenticed to become a blacksmith, is summoned to the home of an eccentric spinster to be a playmate for her young ward, Estella.
Pip soon falls for her but she treats him with cold indifference.
Consequently he longs to be turned into a gentleman.
The surprise ending is warm and delightfully satisfying.
Dickens' sly humor is very affecting on stage.
