About the Book

Janet Munsil's witty, romantic, and ingenious adaptation of Jane Austen's beloved tale of Elizabeth Bennet and Mr Darcy is remarkable for capturing the tone and compressing the complexity of the story into a fast-paced, funny, and fiercely romantic two hours on stage. Sold-out in numerous large professional theatres including Canada's National Arts Centre, Theatre Calgary, and The Arts Club Stanley Theatre, this adaptation is also extremely popular with schools and community theatres for its clarity, comedy, and large number of great roles - especially for women. Synopsis: The romantic world of Regency England is brought to vivid life in this sparkling new stage adaptation of Jane Austen's classic tale of love, family, and the politics of marriage. When the independent minded Elizabeth Bennet meets the enigmatic Mr. Darcy, her opinions on marriage are profoundly tested. Can he overcome his pride and she her prejudice to make an ideal match in a society where social standing outweighs personal feeling? "Delightful...breathes life into the novel, transforming Austen's wry, verbal humour into lightness and gaiety, while not overlooking the novel's darker themes." - Vancouver Courier "Vivid, eloquent, and very funny." - Ottawa Citizen "Simple, crisp elegance - downright brilliantly conceived." - Brokenleg Review "Funny, fierce, and romantic. Undeniably engaging." - Calgary Herald "Worth ovations - a sell-out hit." Calgary Sun "Remarkable . . . a fine and faithful adaptation of Austen's novel captures the tone and compresses the complexity of the story." - Burnaby Now "Blazingly fast and funny . . . (Austen) purists may breathe easy. Perfectly accessible to romance fans, and those who can tolerate a little romance with their comedy." - Apt613.ca Contact plays@janetmunsil.com for Performance Rights information.

Review :
"I "highly recommend" Campfire's comics. They do what they are intended to do and do it in a way that excites kids about classic literature." -- Chris Wilson, "The Graphic Classroom" (a resource for teachers and librarians)
