Pride and Prejudice...But Funny
Advertisement
What do you get if you cross Jane Austen’s most famous novel with a bunch of buffoons? Pride and Prejudice….but funny!
A ridiculous romp through all the Bennets, Bingleys, bachelors and balls (not that kind), and not forgetting the De Bourghs and Darcys.
Featuring at least one soaking wet shirt and some excellent boiled potatoes, this hilarious retelling of Austen’s most loved story is not to be missed!
From the makers of Frankenstein (On a Budget) and Journey to the Centre of the Earth, this hilarious new take on Jane Austen’s classic love story will be one side-splitting night out, full of belly laughs, brand new music and bonkers bonnets.
Made for adults but suitable for 10+
