JANE AUSTEN'S PRIDE AND PREJUDICE

NOVEMBER 11 - 13, 2022 | CARLISLE HIGH SCHOOL THEATER

Written specifically for CHS Theatre Arts, Pride and Prejudice is a modern take on the Jane Austen literary classic. Lizzie Bennet has far more on her mind than snagging a husband — but with a house full of women, a country full of eligible (if awkward) bachelors, and a society preoccupied with marriage, the only escape she can find is in her own journaled thoughts. But what happens when her safe haven is disrupted by the arrival of the inscrutable, wealthy Mr. Darcy?  Complete with a soundtrack of current-day classics, Pride and Prejudice unites the legendary and the contemporary to create a story that is truly timeless.

If the Beast can learn to love and be loved, the curse will end and he will be transformed to his former self. But time is running out—if the beast does not learn his lesson soon, he and his household will be doomed for all eternity.
