Pride and Prejudice gets a musical makeover from 5th Avenue
It is a truth universally acknowledged that in time all classics of literature may one day boast their own musical adaptation, and none may be more so exciting than this new world premiere from Seattle's 5th Avenue! Enlivening Jane Austen's masterpiece with wit, song, and joy, Austen's Pride is Pride and Prejudice seen as never before.
By adding the writer into the plot of Lizzie and Darcy, Lindsay Warren Baker and Amanda Jacobs explore the characters and the life of Miss Austen in close up, discovering new layers to the beloved romantic satire. Set to an achingly beautiful score and following Jane as she writes her most famous work, this is a story of love and wisdom on the road to self-discovery.
