The synopsis for the play, produced by Mary Skeaping, reads: ‘Giselle is a haunting story of innocence and betrayal – a timeless tale about the redemptive power of love.
‘A young peasant girl, Giselle, is in love with Albrecht, a Duke who hides his title and his engagement to another.
‘When Giselle discovers he has deceived her, she is driven to madness, and dies of a broken heart.
‘Late at night, the Wilis gather by her grave, ready to welcome her into their fold as the vengeful spirits of betrayed brides, who force men to dance to their death. Will Giselle’s love protect Albrecht from his fate?’

Last year, Eleanor starred in A Small Light, a biographical mini series following Miep Gies, the woman who hid Anne Frank and her family.
Eleanor shot to fame with young audiences in 2008 when she appeared in the cult classic Angus, Thongs And Perfect Snogging.
The film served as the spring broad for Aaron Taylor-Johnson’s career, as well as allowing its star Georgia Groome to meet partner of twelve years Rupert Grint.
Eleanor’s role starring in BBC smash hit Poldark from 2015 to 2019 alongside Aidan Turner made her a household name.
