She is intelligent\, curious and spirited\, but her family only sees her as a spinster. Ability to play piano a plus. (Role requires an upperclass British Accent.) \nARTHUR DE BOURGH (M\, look 25-30’s) A studious\, unsociable\, only child  who has never been around woman or large families.

Confident\, charming and witty. She makes a fun and surprising lady of the house. She is best friends with her sister Jane. (Role requires an upperclass British Accent.) \nFITZWILLIAM DARCY (M\, look 30’s) A loving\, generous\, smart husband to Elizabeth. He is quiet and vigilant and thus sees what others often miss.

A good friend always ready with a smile and support. (Role requires an upperclass British Accent.) \nLYDIA WICKHAM (F\, look late teens) Flirtatious\, youthful\, self-centered. Her marriage to Mr. Wickham is a sham\, but she will not admit this. She is the person you want at your party: energetic\, engaging\, unstoppable. A foil to Mary. (Role requires an upperclass British Accent.) \nANNE DE BOURGH (F\, look 20’s) Only daughter of the late Lady Catherine de Bourgh.

Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian. \nCAST LIST:\n\nShannon Wynne (JEANIE)\nJacob Rachuy Stephenson (BERGER)\nLatonya Kitchen (DIONNE)\nJules Ronquillo (WOOF)\nCelia Ruskin
