Wuthering Heights
International tour, 2025
After successful UK and US tours, and a run at the National Theatre, Emma Rice’s smash-hit adaptation of Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights returns for an international tour – of Sydney, Kaohsiung, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Chengdu and Suzhou, with full details to be announced shortly.
The Yorkshire moors tell an epic story of love, revenge and redemption.
Rescued from the Liverpool docks as a child, Heathcliff is adopted by the Earnshaws and taken to live at Wuthering Heights. He finds a kindred spirit in Catherine Earnshaw and a fierce love ignites. When forced apart, a brutal chain of events is unleashed.
Shot through with music, dance, passion and hope, Emma Rice transforms Emily Brontë’s masterpiece into a powerful and uniquely theatrical experience: an intoxicating revenge tragedy for our time.
“I am Heathcliff! Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.”a

"Emma Rice has thrown away all the rulebooks and harnessed the beating heart
and slippery soul of Emily Brontë's unwieldy gothic monster, Wuthering Heights, in a
wildly imaginative exhilarating piece of theatre."
