Highlighting the pioneering efforts of Rosina Filippi, this book features her original stage directions for adaptations of four beloved Jane Austen novels: Northanger Abbey, Sense and Sensibility, Emma, and Pride and Prejudice. Filippi believed that Austen's works would captivate theatergoers just as they have captivated readers, making this a fascinating exploration of Austen's potential on stage. The reprint of the 1895 edition includes illustrations by Margaret Fletcher, adding a visual element to the theatrical experience.
