Based loosely (and lovingly) on JaneAustin's Pride and Prejudice, the play is set in a small, hip,privately-owned bookstore where Liz, the 65 year old proprietor (and a formeractivist), hosts a weekly book group for women. While her adult son designswebsites and his annoying wife hosts a weekly food blog, Liz and her colorfulfriends (her actress sister, an organic farmer, a lesbian lawyer, an aginghippie and Liz's recently widowed best friend) meet week after week to discusslife and literature, and to drink LOTS of coffee. When an attractive and wealthy land developer andhis uptight financial advisor announce plans to develop the empty lot nextdoor, the women organize to save their historic neighborhood and a battle ofthe sexes begins. Gentrification mixes with sexual tension in this delightfulEast Coast premiere exploring the value of things new ... and not so new.  www.townplayers.orgFacebook: TownPlayers of PittsfieldVoicemail/BoxOffice – 413-443-9279 ***
