I have seen the play last Sunday at London Fringe Festival and plan to go again.
Marion Johnson has done a fantastic adaptation of ‘Pride and Prejudice’. The play is charming, the dialogue is Austen like and not unnatural, the cast ensemble is great. The chemistry between Lizzy (Martha Zimmerman) & Mr. Darcy (Rod Keith)is amazing. The stellar emseble casts delineated their characters well.
Superb production!!

“Darcy & Elizabeth” has been selected to be one of the most popular London Fringe shows. It was based on ticket sales and popular momentum (indoubtedly) and has been chosed as an “Impresario”, an extra show is rewarded on Sunday August 13.
Bravo to Marion and her great casts!!
