A powerful one-woman show revealing the heartbreak, strength, and revenge of Miss Havisham from Great Expectations. Miss Havisham is the embodiment of stuck trauma and malignant rage.

‘If you knew my story, your heart would break too. ’

1825. A young woman, newly liberated from the deep-rooted effects of an abusive childhood, arrives in London. She is full of hope and ready to embrace a fresh start. However, she soon finds herself as ‘the leading lady in a drama she can’t comprehend.’ The gaslighting is subtle, the manipulation slick.

Heather Alexander delivers a gripping performance in this unforgettable drama. With raw emotion and sharp storytelling, she reveals the struggles, strength, and sorrow behind the wedding dress.

A JOURNEY INTO THE TWISTED PSYCHE OF MISS HAVISHAM. THE STORY THAT DICKENS LEFT OUT...
