Written by Kate Hamill, based on the novel by Jane Austen
February 3 - February 24, 2024
“A woman elevating her own life, liberty and pursuit of happiness above the wishes of her family and the men who desire her? That’s not simple or cynical. In 1813, it is a revolutionary choice.” (NY TIMES)
Kate Hamill, one of the most-produced playwrights in America over the past half-decade, has created “A comically charming (in all the right places) condensation of the book. As it is written, this two-hour trifle has a giddy sense of chaos, while attempting to maintain the upper crust veneer of British society types vying for social position and attempting to secure lucrative marriages for all the eligible daughters.” (DC THEATRE SCENE)
It’s hard to imagine that an interpretation of a 225 year old book “breathes fresh life into these characters in a way that makes them feel contemporary and relatable while retaining the plot, setting and dialog of the Jane Austen original.” (BROADWAY WORLD)
