Outdoor theatre: Pride & Prejudice - Thursday 24 July (Gates 6pm, performance 7pm)

“It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.” Bring a picnic and sit back, relax & enjoy a performance in front of the romantic ruins. Suitable for audiences of all ages.

  • Booking essential

At least one of the Bennet sisters must marry well in order for the family to avoid destitution upon the death of Mr Bennet and so the task of finding suitable matches begins. But, as is always the case, matrimony is easier for some than for others. For Elizabeth Bennet in particular, not all judgements quickly made are correct, in particular when the dashing Mr Darcy is involved…

This Summer, critically acclaimed theatre company This Is My Theatre brings Jane Austen’s classic tale to life in a stunning one-act adaptation to celebrate the author’s 250th anniversary year. Packed with rivalries, regrets and, of course, plenty of romance, our production is sure to spread joy this Summer!

Written by Jane Austen Directed by Sarah Slator Assistant Direction by Chloe Bond Adapted by Ethan Taylor Music by Simon Stallard
