	Jane Eyre: The Musical by Paul Gordon
		Jane Eyre: The Musical opened on December 3, 2000 at the Brooks Atktinson Theatre to positive reviews and no small contributor to such reviews is the music.
		The heroine's, Jane Eyre's, theme is established in the opening track and is used to set the back-story and also tell one of the stories main themes: the overcoming social barriers to reach one’s dreams.
		Originally sung to the young Jane Eyre by Helen Burns as an instruction in forgiveness, the adult Jane Eyre and husband Edward sing Brave Enough for Love (25) which brings the story to its conclusion and reprises a theme that was introduced early on in the story.

	Jane Eyre (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Jane Eyre is an incredibly lyrical, moving composition, written way back in 1971 for a British TV movie based on the classic Charlotte Brontë novel, starring George C. Scott and Susannah York.
		Jane Eyre was written in the pre-Star Wars days when Williams was still known as Johnny and, as you would expect, it lacks the bombast and huge orchestrations that have characterised his later, more famous scores.
		The opening track, the 'Jane Eyre Theme', is simply stunning, with Bob Docker's piano solo floating away beautifully against a sublime string counterpoint that confirms Williams' standing as one of the greatest exponents of the graceful melody.

	Jane Eyre: Musical Reviews
		Simply revolving around the main character plain Jane Eyre, Bronte was able to use the pen to bring her sojourns, misfortune and even her stroke of good luck to all of us, making us sneer at John, smile at the absent-minded Mrs.
		Her vocal artistry and interpretation of the Jane Eyre role captures the essence of the character.
		Dramatic musicals have to work hard to find their way into my world, and a fair number have; generally though, with dramatic musicals, I have found it to be the case that all effort is put into a few main songs and the rest is rather mediocre.

	Show Information: Jane Eyre: Music Theatre International - MTI - Musical Theatre Broadway Shows Available for Licensing
		Jane Eyre is a haunting retelling of the Charlotte Bronte classic about an orphan girl who grows up to become the governess of Thornfield Hall.
		Jane finds she is able to forgive her aunt for the cruelties she suffered as a child, even when she discovers that the injustices shown her by her aunt and cousin far exceeded anything she had imagined in her years there.
		And Elizabeth DeGrazia is brittle, birdlike and faintly despicable as Blanche Ingram, Jane's rival for Rochester's affections.

	Jane Eyre
		Young Jane (Lilly Kershaw)'s childhood is dealt with at what seems like unnecessary length, so when she gets to Lowood School the audience pump is primed to enjoy the number where the poor schoolgirls describe what their life is like, with several clever rhymes on Christianity (vanity as the bane of, for example).
		What Jane Eyre might have been was revealed by some second-act numbers -- Malamphy brought some presence to Rochester's "To Begin Again," his proposal number with Jane was surprisingly smart and dramatic, and the wedding choral number "Secrets and Lies" picked up a lot of slack.
		Jane Eyre is practically the mother of all romances, but this adaptation is an awkward fit.

	ARTICLES (full text) \| Marla Schaffel: The Unofficial Fan Website
		Jane Eyre hopes to become a hit in the Secret Garden mold, presenting a musical version of a classic novel that every middle school girl (and her mother) falls in love with.
		Perhaps Jane's long journey through the wilderness (after her wedding is disrupted by news of Rochester's mad first wife in the attic) gave Schaffel the impossible hope that things would turn out well in the end.
		Although she had the "greatest joy" in originating the musical role of Jane Eyre, Schaffel appreciated the chance to develop a fresh approach to the lovable nun who becomes the von Trapp governess—and later the captain's wife.

	NewStandard: 1/5/97
		Jane's trials and tribulations are many: orphaned, sent to live with cruel relatives, she finally ends up at Thornfield Hall as governess to Rochester's precocious ward.
		And at times, "Jane Eyre" indeed borders on melodrama, what with its jealous, unforgiving aunt, sneering, almost psychotic schoolmaster, and mad wife hidden away on a mansion's upper floor.
		"Jane Eyre" is Toronto's other big musical of the moment -- the first being "Ragtime." Based on E.L. Doctorow's turn-of-the-century novel, the latter is a much splashier musical-theater presentation about the interaction between American icons and three archetypal families.

		I mean the timorous or carping few who doubt the tendency of such books as Jane Eyre: in whose eyes whatever is unusual is wrong; whose ears detect in each protest against bigotry- that parent of crime- an insult to piety, that regent of God on earth.
		Presently he addressed me- 'Your name, little girl?' 'Jane Eyre, sir.' In uttering these words I looked up: he seemed to me a tall gentleman; but then I was very little; his features were large, and they and all the lines of his frame were equally harsh and prim.
		Lulled by the sound, I at last dropped asleep; I had not long slumbered when the sudden cessation of motion awoke me; the coach-door was open, and a person like a servant was standing at it: I saw her face and dress by the light of the lamps.

	Jane Eyre: The Musical , a CurtainUp review
		Notwithstanding the show's somewhat slow to ignite flame, the flashback to Jane's grim youth with her nasty aunt and nephew and as a student and teacher in a fire and brimstone boarding school are necessary to establish her character and situation.
		She is as silly and frivolous as Jane is sober, and her coloratura trills are delicious meringues in contrast to Jane's passionate arias.
		However, like the book, the musical is decidedly female friendly (to wit, its all female lineup of producers!) and may suffer from a variant of the "men don't eat quiche" syndrome.

		Two years ago, I accompanied my dear friend Jim Wilhelm to Toronto to see "Ragtime", "Jane Eyre", and "Phantom of the Opera." Jim is a leading theatrical agent in New York and had clients he needed to visit in the shows.
		I was thrilled with "Ragtime", had seen "Phantom" too many times already and was really looking forward to the new musical version of "Jane Eyre." I knew the title of the Bronte story, but had never seen a movie or TV version and knew nothing of the actual story.
		That is what is so glorious about musical theatre: a group of disparate people coming together to create what they pray is art.

	Show Business Weekly: Review: Jane Eyre: The Musical (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		This is a pretty plain Jane, one that comes alive with spirited ensemble numbers like "Gala Affair" and "Morton" but succumbs to duet-it is elsewhere, as orphaned governess Jane and her shadowy employer Rochester commune and collapse, over and over again.
		Fidelity to spirit, moreover, is wanting: The plucky Jane of the 1840s has been reformatted to be more of a 21st century striver, and Rochester’s rougher edges have been smoothed.
		She and Lily Kershaw, as the young Jane, are the very soul of the show, and the graceful transition between these performers is one highlight of Craig Duke’s able direction.
