Jane Austen’s enduring novel “Pride and Prejudice” comes to life with this production by Knock ’em Dead Dinner Theatre. Director Matthew Hansen turned to

Helen Jerome’s vivid, snappy adaptation, then peppered it with some of Austen’s original dialogue. This Regency-era romantic comedy follows independent and headstrong Elizabeth Bennet, who resists her mother (Barbara Beautrow) as she attempts to find her a suitable husband. That is, until she meets and falls in love with Mr. Darcy (Darren Black).
