Pride & Prejudice* (*sort of)
This event has passed
Direct from its triumph in the West End where it won the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Comedy, Pride and Prejudice* (*sort of) is a unique and audacious retelling of Jane Austen’s most iconic love story.
Deserves the standing ovations it’s getting nightly”
Dominic Cavendish, The Daily Telegraph
Men, money and microphones will be fought over in this irreverent but affectionate adaptation where the stakes couldn’t be higher when it comes to romance.
‘Completely faithful to the book, it’s also a raucously irreverent romp”
Patrick Marmion, Daily Mail
This “smart, laugh out loud funny” (Daily Telegraph) show features a string of pop classics including Young Hearts Run Free, Will You Love Me Tomorrow and You’re So Vain. It’s the 1800s. It’s party time. Let the ruthless matchmaking begin.
‘Riotously funny…gloriously entertaining…frankly sensational”
David Benedict, Variety
‘Hilarity, romance, madness and utter theatrical joy. The whole house rose to its feet and cheered and cheered”
