Various Times
The Barrington Theater
540 West Northwest Highway
| |
Parker Players Theater Company presents Pride & Prejudice by Kate Hamill adapted from the novel by Jane Austen.
Get ready for a fizzy, festive, and timely take on a beloved classic! In this bold, boisterous spin on Pride and Prejudice, Lizzy Bennet swears off marriage—but love (and one vaguely handsome, mildly amusing, and impossibly infuriating Mr. Darcy) has other plans. Packed with wit, chaos, and charm, this screwball takes on literature’s greatest tale of latent romance is a dazzling celebration of love, freedom, and the delightful absurdity of it all.
Group Discounts offered for 10+ tickets! Contact Jennifer McHugh at jmchugh@ParkerPlayersTheater.org for more information
