Pip, a country boy who is apprenticed to become a blacksmith, is summoned to the home of an eccentric spinster to be a playmate for her young ward, Estella. Pip soon falls for her but she treats him with cold indifference. Consequently he longs to be turned into a gentleman. The surprise ending is warm and delightfully satisfying. Dickens' sly humor is very affecting on stage.
