When Lizzie Bennet meets the wealthy and aloof Mr. Darcy, love at first sight quickly turns into a battle of wills. Relive the wit and charm of Jane Austen’s most beloved romantic comedy in this lavish and elegant stage adaptation directed by Johnna Wright (A Christmas CarolThe Importance of Being Earnest).

We've added a second extension in order to meet the demand for tickets! Arguably the most famous love story in literature that ends happily, Pride and Prejudice has attracted some 200 years of readers to its strong, independent heroine. Elizabeth Bennet, a daughter of the ‘lower gentry’, outspoken, intelligent, and proud, finds herself clashing with the aristocratic and aloof Mr. Darcy. Lizzie’s strength and independence have endeared her to generations of fans, but Jane Austen is too sophisticated a writer to leave it at that. Lizzie has a few lessons to learn from her dealings with Mr. Darcy. We all know that these two are destined to be together, but first they must both overcome the pride and the prejudice that keep them apart.
