The Carriage House





A contemporary retelling of Jane Austen's Persuasion set among the American elite

Elizabeth, Diana and Izzy live a privileged life in suburban America and are the pride and joy of their father William.

But the idyllic façade masks a family in turmoil; when William is taken ill, he reveals that he has lost faith in the promise of his gifted daughters and his grandfather's carriage house, now lost to the family.

Devastated by his disappointment they band together to restore the carriage house and to save their family.

The Carriage House is a touching drama about family, relationships and forgiveness - and, ultimately, that it's never too late to make amends.
