Interactive sessions planned for Dallas P&P stage production
Alert Janeite Lisa sent us a link about the Dallas Theater Center’s production of Pride and Prejudice, which has previews beginning tomorrow and opens on September 4. The article reports that after the matinee on Sunday, September 9, a conversation with the director, Stan Wojewodski, Jr., and a talk-back with the cast will follow the matinee on Sunday, September 16. Both events are free.
Incidentally, alert readers will remember that we reported last week that the play inspired an article in which a no doubt well-meaning journalist used the adjective “Victorian” to describe the time period in which it is set. Lisa commented that in the photo accompanying the article about the play, the actress’ hair looks suspiciously…Victorian. We were a little more taken aback by the gentleman’s coiffure. Really, we’re surprised it wasn’t described as “Jane Eyre Meets Becks.” No doubt the actual play will be more period-correct.
