Tess of the D’Urbervilles

Intense sensual story of Tess and the two men who love her. Tess is a pure and natural innocent. Her mother longs for her to make a well connected marriage and her drunken father hopes for a change of his fortunes. Tess is thrown to her fate in a society that will condemn her outright when she is taken advantage of. Too late she finds true love – and, with heart-rending inevitability, she is led to her downfall.

Hardy’s epic novel, brimming with passion and drama, is brought to the stage in a new adaptation written especially for The Questors Theatre.
