Bring a picnic and celebrate Jane Austen‘s 250th year with EastLine Theatre’s production of Emma.  Emma Woodhouse is clever, educated, and energetic…and in imminent danger of going mad with idleness. In a time when respectable ladies are expected to sit quietly at home, she desperately needs projects—and prides herself on matchmaking. But where Emma’s considerable energies focus, screwball comedy ensues.  The performance will take place on the Carriage Museum’s lawn (indoors if raining). This event is part of our Summer Thursdays series, offering free programs on select Thursdays this summer! Check out the full Schedule here.
