This is a beautiful adaptation of a wonderful classic. It’s very theatrical and a true crowd pleaser!

Monday July 17, 2006 7:00 – 9:00 PM

No need to prepare a monologue. I will be interested in your attempt at an English dialect, although it is not necessary to master one at this time. All actors will also be asked to read from the script on the day you audition. Callbacks or additional auditions only as necessary. ALL ROLES OPEN EXCEPT MR. BENNET.
This adaptation was utilized by the Guthrie Theatre’s recent successful summer 2003 production as well as Lakeland’s 2004 production. This adaptation was originally produced at the Gate Theatre in Dublin, Ireland. It is a wonderful adaptation that not only tells a wonderful story but illuminates the characters of Jane Austen’s timeless novel and the English society of the late 18th century.
