The Mill

on the Floss

Written by Helen Edmundson

Directed by Elizabeth Carlin-Metz

“With rare theatrical vibrancy, Helen Edmundson’s free adaptation distills the essence of George Eliot’s feminist novel…” (Evening Standard, London) This tempestuous story of raging passion and victorian constraint pits a young woman against herself and everyone she loves, as the world around her conspires to divide her from her true nature.
