Pride and Prejudice

Mr.Bingley comes to call on Jane

Lady Catherine de Burgh and the Bennets

Some of the Bennets

Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth
My husband and I went to the theater on Saturday in Ross, Ca. It was about 30 minutes away in an old barn. I was so excited to see the best story ever told!!! The theater was small but very a very neat barn! We both enjoyed it but it will never compete with the BBC/A&E 6 hour movie of Pride and Prejudice. That is the movie that made me fall in love with Jane Austin's characters. The play went fast and slow at times. Since my husband did not know the story it maybe was hard to know what was going on in such a short condensed version of the book. At times it felt that it needed more to it to make you get what was really going on. The character of Elizabeth, the mother, father, and Lady Catherine were played very well. We were not allowed to take pictures during the play so here are some pictures from their website.
