Olivier-winning Pride and Prejudice* (*sort of) retells Austen with pop classics at The Alexandra, Birmingham. Check dates and book tickets.
Pride and Prejudice* (*sort of) retells Jane Austen's most celebrated love story with irreverent comedy and pop music. The Olivier and Evening Standard Award-winning production comes to The Alexandra, Birmingham, following its West End run.
Men, money and microphones are all contested prizes as the matchmaking escalates, with the production leaning into comedy rather than reverence for the source novel. The tone is irreverent yet affectionate towards Austen's characters.
Pop classics are woven throughout, including Young Hearts Run Free, You're So Vain and Will You Love Me Tomorrow. The running time is 2 hours 20 minutes.
No age guidance is listed in the available information. Anyone uncertain about suitability for younger theatregoers is advised to check directly with the venue before booking.
