About this event
Dates, address & more
With her tongue very firmly in her cheek, Jane Austen tells us “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.” Mrs Bennet certainly thinks so. So when Mr Bingley – single, young, handsome and with £5000 a year – moves into nearby Netherfield Park, she devotes all her energy to contriving for Jane, the eldest of her five daughters, to meet him. Thank heavens Lizzy, her second daughter, finds Mr Bingley’s disdainful friend Mr Darcy (despite his whopping £10,000 a year) detestable too! Or does she…? Can she see beyond his pride – and could he overcome her prejudice – to consider a possible future of happiness together?
Following seven sell-out seasons of this sparkling adaptation, award-winning Illyria returns to celebrate Jane Austen’s 250th birthday in style. Bring a picnic and enjoy her at her vibrant and forthright best!
Running time: 140-minutes (approximately), including a 20-minute interval.
Tickets: Adult £18, Child £12, Family tickets available - See booking Site or Call 0344 249 1895 for booking details.
