Highly entertaining take on great source material

See it if you know Pride & Prejudice well, enjoy farce and physical comedy and love experiencing a terrific ensemble cast having a ball together.

Don't see it if I think this show is probably best enjoyed if you know the plot of Pride & Prejudice and the various characters.

Clever, Delightful, Funny, Great acting, Great staging

See it if You enjoy non-traditional takes on classics, like farce and silliness, can forgive slightly cynical perspective on love and marriage.

Don't see it if you are immune to the real creativity behind a low budget production such as this, with great acting and ingenious stagecraft from f. POV.

Clever, Entertaining, Great acting, Funny, Ambitious

See it if you enjoyed Kate Hamill's Sense and Sensibility and would like to see another work by her. This is good but not as outstanding and creative

Don't see it if You would only like a traditional rendering of the novel

Clever, Delightful, Hilarious

See it if you love the book; this is a really funny interpretation & presentation of the characters & the story. I've enjoyed all Hamill's adaptations

Don't see it if you want it to be serious or flawless. Lizzy and Darcy are not my preferred versions of these characters

Clever, Funny, Edgy

See it if You enjoy creative versions of shows. This is a farce, so prepare for a comedy rather than a romance.

Don't see it if You are a P&P purist or you don't like gender bender characters.
