Grab your sisters and cinch those corsets! This is a retelling of Jane Austen’s beloved Pride and Prejudice like no other, performed by a remarkable new cast with an original score by Grammy-nominated composer, Morgan Kibby. Elizabeth Bennet has no intention of settling for any man, or frankly any life, that isn’t lived entirely on her terms. She will marry for love, dance when she wants to dance, and—if at all possible—find a quiet spot to read without being interrupted.

Elizabeth Bennet non è il tipo di donna che si piega. Né agli uomini, né a un destino scritto da altri. Non immagina, però, che l'arrivo del ricco e insopportabile signor Darcy sia destinato a mettere in discussione ogni sua certezza. Scoprite il mondo interiore di Elizabeth, dove la ragione duella con il cuore nel tentativo di conciliare l'orgoglio dell'identità con la vulnerabilità del sentimento.

Appelez vos sœurs et lacez vos corsets ! Délectez-vous de cette adaptation rafraîchissante d’Orgueil et préjugés, le chef-d’œuvre de Jane Austen au succès jamais démenti, interprété par un nouveau casting époustouflant sur une musique originale de Morgan Kibby, compositrice saluée par une nomination aux Grammy Awards. Elizabeth Bennet n’a pas la moindre intention de choisir un homme, ni pour tout dire une vie, qui ne serait pas entièrement conforme à ses désirs.

Schlüpf in dein Korsett, versammle deine Schwestern und brich auf in die Welt von Jane Austens Klassiker der Herzen: Stolz und Vorurteil. In dieser einzigartigen Nacherzählung wird der Roman von einem hochkarätigen Ensemble zum Leben erweckt, untermalt von Originalmusik aus der Feder der Grammy-nominierten Komponistin Morgan Kibby. Elizabeth Bennet käme es nie in den Sinn, sich mit etwas zu begnügen, das nicht voll und ganz ihren Vorstellungen entspricht, sei es bei der Gestaltung ihres Lebens oder der Wahl ihres Ehemanns.
