Wuthering Heights
By Emily Bronte
Directed by David Durant

Thursday 2 – Saturday 4 October

Love turns savage on the Yorkshire moors.

Passion, obsession, and revenge collide in this fierce new staging of Emily Brontë’s masterpiece. Watch as Heathcliff and Cathy’s devastating love story ignites the stage, brought to life by a unique ensemble of professional actors performing alongside the brightest talents from our local community and Youth Theatre.

When a mysterious orphan boy is taken in by the Earnshaw family, no one could predict how his intense connection with young Cathy would unleash decades of passion, betrayal, and vengeance. Their destructive love affair haunts two generations, poisoning everyone it touches. As storms rage across the moors, dark secrets surface, and long-buried emotions explode into life.

This daring new production cuts straight to the heart of Brontë’s gothic masterpiece, revealing its raw power. Our exceptional cast blends seasoned professionals with fresh local talent to create something truly unique – a Wuthering Heights for today’s audience that captures all the wild spirit of the original.

Some loves burn too hot to survive. Some stories refuse to die.

Join us for a theatrical storm you won’t forget.

Age guidance: Recommended 11+ (some violent moments and scenes of alcohol abuse)

Why your support matters

As Christmas approaches, we’re reminded of the joy and warmth this season brings. But for many in our community, especially those facing mental health challenges, it can be a difficult time. At Coventry, Warwickshire and Worcestershire Mind, we are committed to ensuring no one has to face these challenges alone, especially during the festive season.

This Christmas, we are asking for your support to continue providing our essential services, such as Safe Haven in Worcestershire and Safe Haven in Coventry and Warwickshire and which offers a lifeline for those struggling with mental health. Every donation helps ensure that no one is left to face their challenges in isolation.

We also want to bring warmth and connection to our clients in our Wellbeing Hubs in Coventry and Warwickshire by sponsoring a Christmas meal for someone in need, offering not just food but the gift of care, support, and belonging. Your generosity will make a real difference in their lives. Your contributions will provide a comforting meal and a sense of community for those who might otherwise feel alone during the holidays.

Lastly, our Coventry and Warwickshire Mental Wellbeing Line will be open throughout the holiday season, offering vital mental health support. With your help, we can continue to be a lifeline for those who need it most.
