A lush and emotionally charged adaptation of Edith Wharton’s classic novel about love, duty, and societal expectations.
"The Age of Innocence" brings Edith Wharton’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel to the stage in a sweeping tale of love and restraint set in 1870s New York high society. Newland Archer, a well-respected lawyer, is engaged to the charming but conventional May Welland—until the arrival of the independent and scandalous Countess Ellen Olenska upends his world. As Archer grapples with his desires and societal pressures, the play explores themes of passion, honor, and sacrifice. With elegant storytelling and richly drawn characters, this adaptation captures the heartbreak and beauty of a bygone era.
