Opening at Chelmsford Theatre ahead of their UK tour, David Pugh presents the Chelmsford Theatre production of Pride and Prejudice* (*sort of) By Isobel McArthur after Jane Austen.

After its triumph in the West End, where it won the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Comedy and the Evening Standard Award, Pride and Prejudice* (*sort of) returns by public demand and is a unique and audacious retelling of Jane Austen’s most iconic love story.

Men, money and microphones will be fought over in this irreverent but affectionate adaptation where the stakes couldn’t be higher when it comes to romance. This multi-award-winning production features a string of pop classics including Young Hearts Run Free, Will You Love Me Tomorrow and You’re So Vain.

It’s the 1800s.
It’s party time.
Let the ruthless matchmaking begin.
