 'Mansfield Park'
Character: Maria Bertram
Synopsis: At 10, Fanny Price, a poor relation, goes
to live at Mansfield Park, the estate of her aunt's husband, Sir
Thomas. Clever, studious, and a writer with an ironic
imagination and fine moral compass, she becomes especially close
to Edmund, Thomas's younger son. Fanny is soon possessed of
beauty as well as a keen mind and comes to the attention of a
neighbor, Henry Crawford. Thomas promotes this match, but to his
displeasure, Fanny has a mind of her own, asking Henry to prove
himself worthy. As Edmund courts Henry's sister and as light
shines on the link between Thomas's fortunes and New World
slavery, Fanny must assess Henry's character and assert her
heart as well as her wit. Based on the book by Jane Austen.
Michelle plays one of Fanny's cousins.
