afO's Jane Eyre

Jane Eyre was a beautiful production put on by all for One.  The set and costumes were gorgeous, and the story was so well told!  I loved the range of emotions that were portrayed in this story.  The actors were awesome!  

For those who might not know the story, Jane is a young woman who came from a rough background as a poor orphan.  She was raised by an uncle who loved her and an aunt who didn't.  She becomes the governess of a lovely girl after befriending the girl's supposed father, Mr. Edward Rodchester.  After time, Jane realizes that she is falling in love with Edward.  She gets summoned back home to see her dying Aunt.  When she returns, she learns that Edward loves her, and they plan to get married.  Their wedding is halted when the priest is informed that Edward is married to another woman.  Even though Jane meets Edward's wife, who is literally crazy, Jane runs away where she is taken in by some generous people who she later learns are her cousins.  She also discovers that she inherited her uncle's wealth.  She eventually decides to go back to Edward.  She learns that there was a fire started by Edward's crazy wife who gets killed, and that Edward was left blind and crippled.  She finds him and finally agrees to marry him, and they live happily ever after.  :)
