| Lucy Honeychurch is on her first trip to Italy with her cousin Charlotte when she meets the intellectually challenging but socially unacceptable George Emerson. They share a passionate kiss, but Charlotte crushes the affair. Lucy later becomes engaged to the more acceptable, rather priggish Cecil Vyse, which seems to seal her fate. But back in England, a series of coincidences bring George into Lucy's social circle once again. Will she have the strength to choose courage, truth, and love over convention? An inventive adaptation of E. M. Forster's classic novel about the consequences and rewards of being true to one's real nature. |

| "The tone is pitch-perfect -- winsome and droll but rooted in social realities... this show feels literate but never stuffy; intellectually stimulating but vulnerably human; wide-eyed but understanding." |
