Join This Is My Theatre this summer, for Jane Austen’s Pride & Prejudice!

“To be fond of dancing was a certain step towards falling in love”
― Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

At least one of the Bennet sisters must marry well in order for the family to avoid destitution upon the death of Mr Bennet and so the task of finding suitable matches begins. But, as is always the case, matrimony is easier for some than for others. For Elizabeth Bennet in particular, not all judgements quickly made are correct, in particular when the dashing Mr Darcy is involved… ​

This Is My Theatre performing Pride & Prejudice

This Summer, critically acclaimed theatre company This Is My Theatre brings Jane Austen’s classic tale to life in a stunning one-act adaptation to celebrate the author’s 250th anniversary year.

 

Packed with rivalries, regrets and, of course, plenty of romance, This Is My Theatre is sure to spread joy this Summer!

 

 

This is an outdoor production, so please bring a chair or blanket to sit on, a picnic to dig into, and dress for the weather!
