About Pride and Prejudice
Pride and Prejudice, an adaptation in words and music is the theatrical retelling of Jane Austen’s most famous work. The enduring story of the romance between Elizabeth Bennet and Mr Darcy is presented in an intimate drawing-room setting, in much the same way that Jane herself first read the story aloud to the Austen family and their closest friends.
Film, television and stage icon, Nadine Garner brings to life Austen’s most famous manuscript with a sublime musical accompaniment. Weaving around Austen’s own words is Carl Davis' magical score from the much-loved BBC TV drama series of Pride and Prejudice, widely considered the most seminal television adaptation of the author’s work.
Joining Nadine on stage will be Madeleine Easton, the Australian musician who enthralled a televised audience of 400 million people with solo performances at the coronation of King Charles III.
Internationally acclaimed concert pianist Melvyn Tan joins us for all performances to Sunday 25 August. The Singaporean born child prodigy moved to London aged twelve to study at the Yehudi Menuhin School before an in-demand career performing at the world’s most prestigious venues including Royal Festival Hall and New York’s Lincoln Centre.
For the final week of the season we welcome Australia’s next generation, rising star concert pianist Dan Le. Having already enjoyed an international career spanning four continents, he has been described as an incredibly versatile soloist, chamber musician and innovative artist. Melbourne born Dan was hailed by the New York Concert Review as a “brilliant young pianist.”
Pride and Prejudice is arguably the greatest romance novel of the English Language. More than 200 years after her death, Jane Austen’s work continues to resonate with every new generation. It is fitting that much loved Australian actor Nadine Garner will honour this legacy in a unique but faithful production promising captivating entertainment. laugh-out-loud moments and wonderful surprises.
