Great Lakes Theater treats Austen’s ‘Pride and Prejudice’ with austerity.

The adaptation of novel-to-play is finely done. The directing is inspired.  The acting is finely tuned. The technical aspects are outstanding.  This is a must-see production which shines a spotlight on Great Lakes Theater at its finest.

If you are unfamiliar with the works of Jane Austen this is a brilliant way to take her into your life. The play is true to the novel and exceptionally acted. You truly get to know each person involved and in turn fall in love with them. Bravo to Great Lakes Theater for an extraordinarily fine production.

This Pride and Prejudice is a welcome relief from the barrage of coarse language (“horse-face!”) that currently permeates our culture. In the supremely capable hands of Hanreddy, this Austen caper is refined, witty, and altogether transporting.

If you think “ho-hum” Jane Austen again, think again, please. This is a truly first-rate production that brings out the celebrated wit and humor (and kindness) that has kept Pride and Prejudice a classic (and good-natured) lesson about the dangers of rushing to judge others.
