By Jane Austen
In an adaptation by Simon Reade
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife
As the Bennet sisters haplessly search for love in Jane Austen’s ultimate romantic comedy, it is Mr Darcy who unwittingly finds his match.
Pride and Prejudice returned to the Open Air Theatre following a sell-out run in 2013, and featured the Olivier Award-winner Matthew Kelly (Of Mice and Men, Educating Rita, Waiting for Godot) and Felicity Montagu (Alan Partridge, Bridget Jones’s Diary, The Durrells) as Mr and Mrs Bennet. Celebrating the legacy of Jane Austen as we approached her bicentennial, the production toured the UK until 2017.
