Events Description
When the Cochrane Ranche Amateur Players announce a new adaptation of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, stage manager Sam has her hands full with a colourful array of community theatre misfits: a clueless director, an egotistical writer/choreographer/leading lady, a scorned diva, an overlooked veteran, and the town’s local druggie. But when Sam begins to fall for the leading man, things really start to get complicated.
This hilarious musical follows the group’s journey as they unwittingly butcher Jane Austen\’s beloved classic. With a jazzy score and anachronisms galore, Austentatious is terrible theatre at its absolute comedic best.
“From the obligatory I love showbiz show-stopping song, to the payoff in the group\’s final performance, which culminates in a tap dance contest between the Victorian protagonists, Elizabeth and Lydia Bennett, this piece hits its targets, keeps up its pacing and is very funny.”- The New York Times
