About this Event
It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife. It is a truth similarly acknowledged that a reader in possession of a Jane Austen novel must be in for a great time.
It's little wonder that Pride and Prejudice is still one of the most beloved books of the past 225 years. What keeps us coming back to Jane Austen time and again? Why and how does she exert such an impact on literary culture, on our pop culture? What draws filmmakers time and again to make and remake her novels?
You'll see for yourselves as four wonderful actors read from scenes from Jane Austen's timeless work.
Actor Andrew Borba has appeared in dozens of film and television shows, including Taken 3, Interstellar, Shameless, and Straight Outta Compton.
John Ross Bowie appeared in Shameless, The Big Bang Theory, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and countless other shows. He is also the author of the critically acclaimed memoir, No Job for a Man.
British actor Lucy Davenport appeared in the UK stage adaptation of Pride and Prejudice, and played Lydia and Elizabeth Bennet, in addition to television and film roles including Dinner for Shmucks, Roe V. Wade, and others.
Kerry O'Malley is a film and television actor whose credits include A Man on the Inside; Nightbitch; David Fincher's The Killer; and so many more.
