“I could easily forgive his pride, if he had not mortified mine.”
When a host of eligible bachelors descend on the small community of Meryton, hearts are set racing, and the tranquil world of the Bennet family is sent into a whirlwind of passions and possibilities. At the centre of all this excitement, the meeting of Lizzie Bennet and Mr Darcy ignites one of the most famous love-stories of all time.
Abigail Pickard Price’s “uproariously funny” adaptation sees three actors conjure 17 of Jane Austen’s unforgettable characters to life, in Guildford Shakespeare Company’s “fresh and genuinely romantic” production of this beloved romantic comedy.

Brilliant! The actors were superb, the costumes lovely, and the props very amusing (particularly liked the picture frame, and Mr Darcy's guest appearances) - with subtle looks and clever body language lifting it above even Jane Austen's wonderful wit.

Thoroughly enjoyable! Humorous and fast-paced. A wonderful cast!

Pride & Prejudice is a big favourite of mine. I was not disappointed. Absolutely brilliant, enjoyed every minute. The transition from one scene/character to another was just so clever.
