Pride and Prejudice to be staged in Portland
The Portland Oregonian reports that Portland Center Stage will produce an adaptation of Pride and Prejduice during their 2005-2006 season.
“Pride and Prejudice”: Marcus Goodwin’s adaptation was originally produced by Seattle’s Book-It Repertory Theatre in 2002. Director Jane Jones will work on a mostly bare stage with 14 actors. “I was so knocked out by the elegance and wit with which she put it together,” [artistic director Chris] Coleman says.
It will be performed at the Newmark Theatre, Oct. 25 through Nov. 20, 2005.
Hmm…now Portland, at only 150 miles from this Cub Reporter’s home, might be an enjoyable road trip, especially since I missed it in 2002 when it was produced 30 miles from my home.
