In Tess, Tennant offers us an interpretation of Hardy's novel that places the real women in the author's life at its centre. Tess is based on Hardy s real-life obsession with a milkmaid named Augusta Way, who became the model for his tragic heroine Tess of the D Urbervilles, and Augusta s daughter, Gertrude Bugler, who played Tess in Hardy s stage adaptation of the book. Set in the late Sixties, the spirit of the doomed Tess lives on in a pair of sisters plain-faced Liza Lu and another dark, beautiful Tess.
