Pride and Prejudice* (*sort of)

★★★★★ Spectacular comedy feast

Pride and Prejudice* (*sort of) returns to Edinburgh in spectacular style. The retelling of Jane Austen’s classic highlights a time when, for a woman, finding financial security in the shape of a man took priority, while featuring a strong all-female cast who prove that women really can do it all.

✭✭✭✩✩ Resilient:
The resilience of the Chamber Opera of Chicago is never in doubt as the company stick at their operetta adaptation of Jane Austen’s Persuasion to the end, working hard to bring in at just under three hours.

Review – Mansfield Park

Review – Mansfield Park

✭✭✭✩✩ Satisfactory adaptation

Solid if ultimately unspectacular, Theatre Royal Bury St Edmunds’ adaptation of Mansfield Park provides quality entertainment even if it never really hits the heights.
