- 8:00 PM1hThe Moors, by Jen SilvermanTHE MOORS By Jen Silverman Directed by Kristen Palmer Oct 10-20, 2024 Nafe Katter Theatre It's 1840(-ish). Two spinster sisters, a maid (or is it two maids?) and a melancholy mastiff live out their lives on the bleak English moors, dreaming of love and power. The arrival of a fresh-faced governess (through the door) and a moor-hen (out of the sky) sets them on a strange, dangerous path. Part Brontë satire, part Gothic thriller, part feminist rock musical, The Moors is a wholly delicious anachronistic comedy about desperation, love, and our desire to be seen for who we truly are. Directed by Kristen Palmer. "Gorgeously dark, chillingly funny, and a real treat for any Brontë fans. — West End Best Friend
