Pride and Prejudice (2013)

20 June – 20 July

Adapted for the stage by Simon Reade.
Based on the novel by Jane Austen.

"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife". As the Bennet sisters haplessly search for love in Jane Austen’s ultimate romantic comedy, it is Mr Darcy who unwittingly finds his match. The production celebrated the 200th anniversary of the novel, and featured Jennifer Kirby as Elizabeth Bennet, David Oakes as Mr Darcy, and Jane Asher as Lady Catherine de Bourgh.

Reviews

Times

"JANE AUSTEN’S MOST BELOVED NOVEL RE-BORN...it clips along smartly from scene to scene...and shows a respect for Austen’s dialogue."

Evening Standard

“Such CHARM AND ELEGANCE...Jennifer Kirby makes a professional stage debut as Elizabeth Bennet; her intelligent, laughing demeanour and sparkling eyes make her the perfect foil for David Oakes’s BROODING, DEPTH-SUGGESTING MR DARCY."
