Enchanted April, Matthew Barber's stage adaptation of Elizabeth von Arnim's early 1920s novel, opened on Broadway in 2003. This romantic comedy tells the story of four English women who break free of their rain-drenched sorrows and oppression for a month in a rented Italian castle, there's plenty of surprises. Enchanted April tackles the issues of wars between the sexes (and even wars within the sexes) head on.
Directed by Bro. Ron Fender
Judy LaMance (On right as Lottie Wilton) and Anne Swedberg (as Rose Arnott) play two women who decide to exchange the rains of England and the doldrums of their marriages for "sunshine and wisteria" in Italy.
