When eligible bachelors move into the home nearby\, Mrs. Bennett is determined to find matches for her five daughters. While Elizabeth doesn’t have the same priorities as her mother\, she finds it difficult to avoid the subject after a string of unsuitable suitors. But when the independent Elizabeth meets the enigmatic Mr. Darcy\, they must determine if first impressions or their feelings will triumph. Is it possible in their strict society for Elizabeth and Darcy to look beyond his pride and her prejudice\, and to make the best match of all? \nCASTING THE FOLLOWING ROLES: \nNOTE: All roles are open to All Ethnicities.\nAges listed are perceived age\, Actors of any age that can play this range may audition. \nAll roles require a British accent. \nMR.
