This sole on-screen outing as the contrasted earlier suave interpretations, focusing on a horror-infused aesthetic rooted in the Gothic elements of the series.

Audio drama reprises and expansions

His first major adaptation, Adam Bede (1859), premiered at the Orange Tree Theatre in February 1990, with Beevers also directing. The production, set in 18th-century rural England, follows carpenter Adam Bede's entanglement with dairymaid Hetty Sorrel and squire Arthur Donnithorne, retaining Eliot's themes of integrity and consequence amid a humorous portrayal of village life. It earned Beevers a Time Out Award for its successful translation of the novel's narrative structure to the stage, using minimal scenery and ensemble doubling for 15 male and supporting female roles. Revivals followed, including at Derby Playhouse and York Theatre Royal in the early 1990s, and a 2005 Orange Tree production that highlighted the challenges of adapting Eliot's introspective style. In 1998, Beevers adapted Silas Marner (1861) for the Orange Tree, again directing the premiere, which depicted the weaver's isolation, gold obsession, and redemption through child Eppie in a rural community. The bare-stage production employed four entry points for fluid scene transitions, accommodating 15 male and 8 female roles with doubling.

Each play focuses on distinct character arcs within Eliot's provincial tapestry: Dorothea Brooke's idealistic marriage, Tertius Lydgate's medical ambitions, and Fred Vincy's romantic entanglements.
