 SYNOPSIS:
 Watch Elizabeth Bennett and Mr. Darcy fall in love all over again --
this time filtered through the world of the internet. Modern voices
interject and build on this classic love story in the form of blog
posts, chat room discussions, quotes from film adaptations, and even
letters from Ms. Austen herself to create a delightfully postmodern
view of 19th century England. Written for five actors to play every
role, Pride at Prejudice is a hilarious and moving homage to Jane
Austen's most beloved novel, as well our love affair with reading.

 AVAILABLE ROLES:
 Actress A: 20s-30s: Elizabeth Bennett

 Actress B: 20s-40s: Jane Bennett, Caroline Bingley, Lydia, Mary, Lady
Catherine, Georgiana, Jane Austen

 Actress C: 30s-50s: Mrs. Bennett, Charlotte, Mrs. Gardiner, Miss De
Bourgh 

 Actor A: 20s-30s: Mr. Darcy, Mr. Collins

 Actor B: 30s-50s: Mr. Bennett, Mr. Bingley, Sir William, Footman,
Doctor, Mr. Wickham, Mr. Gardiner, Colonel Fitzwilliam

 Performers are expected to be able to switch between roles quickly,
using as little as an adjustment of posture, voice, or attitude to
distinguish one character from another. 

 English accents are welcome, but at a minimum formal, American speech
is required.
