Australian actress Linda Marlowe stars as Charles Dickens’ iconic jilted bride in Di Sherlock’s Miss Havisham’s Expectations at the Trafalgar Studios.

Focusing on the Victorian heroine as she wrestles with love, loss and ageing, the production sees her recount episodes found in Great Expectations from her own perspective.

Combining Dickens’ original text with biographical and original material, the tale of passion and vengeance arrives in London following it success at 2012’s Edinburgh Fringe.

The production plays as a double bill alongside Sikes & Nancy starring James Swanton.
