Review of stage production of PRIDE AND PREJUDICE in Cleveland area
Clevescene.com reviews the stage production of PRIDE AND PREJUDICE currently being presented at Lakeland Community College, which we previously reported. The reviewer seemed to enjoy the play but is sadly misinformed as to Georgian social history.
Austen’s entire plot depends on the fact that women of that age could not inherit family property from the patriarch
Untrue, of course. Anne deBourgh will inherit Rosings. The Bennet girls cannot inherit due to a family entailment.
Even with her mother fluttering about, trying to match up her necessarily co-dependent girls with anything in slacks who pulls down a respectable yearly wage
Wage? A Darcy earning a WAGE?!?
Dorothy! Bring our vinaigrette instantly!
The play runs through October 31. As always, we love to publish reader reviews.
