Rebecca

"Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again...."

How many of you recognise those opening words from Rebecca? What images do they conjure up... and what memories of the first time you either read the novel or saw the film?  Daphne du Maurier's stage version of her classic novel is now revised by Clifford Williams to make it more accessible to a modern audience without losing any of the romance, tension and atmosphere of the original.  The story of Maxim de Winter's second wife slowly piecing together her husband's tragic and unhappy past, married to the beautiful but treacherous Rebecca is as moving and exciting as ever, and the strongly drawn characters, including the obsessed and malicious housekeeper, Mrs. Danvers, remain powerful, engaging and true.
