Pride and Prejudice
By Jane Austen, adapted by Bonnie J. Monte
October 17–November 19
World premiere! Jane Austen’s ever-popular romance chronicles the always delicious, often highly amusing and sometimes heartbreaking details of a turbulent and true romance between the witty and sensible Elizabeth Bennett, a gentlewoman of modest means, and the handsome and wealthy but asocial Mr. Darcy. After a disastrous first encounter, Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy find themselves involved in an unlikely courtship that will challenge each of them to overcome their chief vices — pride and prejudice. Directed by Bonnie J. Monte.
