Talented Gavit Students On March 3, 1978, the Drama Department, un- der the direction of Mr. Martin Stiglitz, presented the classic play, Jane Eyre. The production was a huge success because of the hard work of the entire Drama Department, Cast, and Crew. The play was an excerpt from the book, Jane Eyre, written by Charlotte Bronte. Jane Eyre was about an English woman who lived in the 19th Cen- tury. She came to live at a house to take care of a little girl, Adele. While she was there, she fell in love with Adele’s father, Rochester, but found he was married. She ran away, and years later, came back to find him blinded. They realized then that they were in love with each other and married at the end of the play. The cast professionally conveyed both the humor and drama of the plot of this famous English play.
