Emma by Ava Pickett

Emma Woodhouse thinks she has it all figured out. Fresh from Oxford University and back in her hometown for the summer, she's ready to do what she does best: sort out everyone else's lives, whether they like it or not.

Her closest friend Harriet is a total dating disaster, her father keeps disappearing on mysterious errands, and George Knightley refuses to stop pointing out the flaws in her flawless plans. But Emma knows best... right?

Emma is Jane Austen's timeless classic of romance, friendship, and the tricky business of figuring out what truly makes us happy. Ava Pickett's irresistible adaptation joyously pulls the story into the twenty-first century, swapping drawing-room duets for dance-floor fillers. It premiered at Rose Theatre, Kingston upon Thames, in 2025, directed by Christopher Haydon.
