[A] faithful adaptation of Austen's classic tale with a modern twist
The Yorkshire Post

A sparkling romantic comedy.

Jane Austen’s most iconic love story is brought dazzlingly to life on stage.

When it comes to the subject of marriage, headstrong Lizzy Bennet is determined to resist the mounting pressures and expectations from society. But can she resist love, especially when theinfuriatingly intriguing Mr. Darcy keeps popping up at every turn?!

With sharp humour and sparkling dialogue, this witty stage adaptation brings to life the classic story of love, misunderstandings, and second chances (with plenty of music and dancing). Lose yourself in the world of Regency parties and courtship, as hearts race, tongues wag and passions swirl around the English countryside.

Discover the absurdities and thrills of finding your perfect (or imperfect) match in life, with this vibrant retelling of Austen’s beloved novel, performed by a large cast of immensely talented actors. Join us for this UK premiere production, adapted by award-winning playwright Kate Hamill and directed by the Octagon Theatre Bolton’s Artistic Director Lotte Wakeham.
