The Ensemble Theatre of New Jersey, a performance arm of Franklin Theatre Works, is proud to present “Pride and Prejudice”. All the wit and romance of Jane Austen”s 1813 novel comes to life in this refreshingly fast-paced and engaging adaptation by Jon Jory. “Pride and Prejudice” tells the story of life and love among the English gentility during the Georgian era, and focuses on the Bennet family whose future happiness and security are dependant on the daughters making good marriages. With the arrival of several eligible bachelors in their neighborhood, the five Bennet sisters find their lives turned upside down, as pride confronts prejudice, upward mobility encounters social disdain and hasty judgments challenge good sense.
“Pride and Prejudice” will be performed on Friday, April 3 and Saturday, April 4 at 7:30 p.m. at the theatre of North Hunterdon High School on Route 31 in Annandale, N.J. Tickets are $15 for adults and $6 for seniors and students, and will be available at the door or may be purchased in advance by calling 908-310-0041. Refreshments will be sold at intermission.
