Vanity Fair in Scrips Ranch Theatre
On stage Jun 7, 2024 - Jun 16, 2024
Two women—one born into privilege, another straight from the streets—attempt to navigate a society that punishes them for every misstep. Clever Becky’s not afraid to break the rules; soft-hearted Amelia’s scared to bend them. Both strive for what they want—but neither can thrive without the other. Through Becky and Amelia’s victories and losses, this thrilling, highly theatrical (im)morality play explores how flexible our morals can become when the wheel of fortune turns.
This brilliant adaptation of the classic novel uses seven actors to play all of the roles. The fluid setting moves easily from one simply suggested location to another. Set against the backdrop of the Napoleonic Wars, Vanity Fair charts the girls’ misadventures in love, marriage, and family.
