The Ross Valley Players Present
Pride and Prejudice!
You've read the book and its sequels and retellings, seen all the movies and own the soundtracks -- what's next? May I suggest the play! The Ross Valley Players, possibly the oldest community theater group this side of the Rocky Mountains, having performed for eighty years, is including "Pride and Prejudice" in their production line-up this season, from November 11 to December 12.
The play was written in 2006 by playwright Jon Jory and has been described as comprehensive, yet fast-moving, just the way Jane wrote P and P:
The play was written in 2006 by playwright Jon Jory and has been described as comprehensive, yet fast-moving, just the way Jane wrote P and P:
"All of the wit and romance of Austen's classic 1813 novel come to
life in this refreshingly fast-paced and engaging new adaptation.
The San Francisco Chronicle said that Jory has crafted an
exceptionally clear, funny and moving version. The Tucson
Weekly said that Jory gets the entire story told without either
cramming the script with detail or omitting anything crucial."
The theater is located in Ross, California, just north of San Francisco near San Rafael.
