Review by Judith Robinson
Matthew Barber’s adaptation of Elizabeth von Arnim’s 1922 novel, Enchanted April, is seamless. The writing flows eloquently from beginning to end. While 21st Century audiences may not find the actions of the two British main characters, Lotty and Rose, played by Moya O’Connell and Tara Rosling all that scandalous—for their time—running away from their husbands to vacation alone, was nothing short of revolutionary (think ‘Thelma and Louise’).
