“A lady’s imagination is very rapid; it jumps
from admiration to love, and from love to matrimony in a moment.”
Mrs Bennet is determined to get her daughters married: clever and
quick-witted Elizabeth; beautiful Jane, bookish Mary; immature Kitty and wild
Lydia – all of whose lives are turned upside down with the arrival of a wealthy
young man and his best friend, a certain Mr Fitzwilliam Darcy.
This light-hearted
tale of love and values follows Elizabeth Bennet as she learns the error of
making hasty judgements and comes to appreciate what really matters in the
snobbish social world of Regency England.
PRIDE AND
PREJUDICE is a literary classic and our production carries with it all of the wit
and humour that made Jane Austen’s novel such an enduring comedy of manners.
Alongside the
production we have the latest Gallery exhibition in our foyer, SCULPTURE AND
PAINTINGS by Malcolm Yorke and R.K.R. Thornton.
