| New play at Vienna’s English Theater<\/a>! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Isobel McArthur\u2019s refreshing new adaptation of Jane Austen\u2019s most iconic novel became a triumph in the West End and won the Laurence Olivier Award 2022 for Best Comedy. Told from the perspective of a group of servants who take on all the roles, this classic romance, brimming with\u00a0Austen\u2019s witty dialogues, is turned into a joyful tour-de-force interspersed with quick-changes, upstairs\/downstairs mayhem, and pop style musical performances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s the 1800s. It\u2019s party time. Let the merry matchmaking begin!
Pride and Prejudice<\/em>\u00a0follows the five Bennet sisters as they are forced to search for \u201cgood\u201d marriages. The family estate cannot be passed onto a female heir and Mrs Bennet is desperate to find a match for her two eldest daughters. She sets all her hopes on the newly arrived, and wealthy, Mr Bingley, to fall in love with her eldest, Jane. Her instincts are soon proven right, but at the same time, her second daughter, the headstrong Elizabeth, refuses to marry for security and engages in a \u201ctrench warfare\u201d with the haughty Mr Darcy which threatens to ruin everything. Many entanglements ensue before Elizabeth and Darcy learn to overcome their pride and prejudices, so the Bennet family can finally reach their \u201chappily ever after\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
