Outdoor theatre will be coming to Erddig Hall later this month.
Chapterhouse Theatre Company has announced it will be presenting a performance of Jane Austen's classic Pride and Prejudice, adapted for the stage by Laura Turner, on Saturday, July 20 at 6.30pm.
The performance will offer the audience an opportunity to meet Elizabeth Bennet and her sisters as they navigate the manners of regency society.
In Chapterhouse’s interpretation, the timeless classic is expertly brought to life with 'stunning period costumes, timeless wit, and a romantic original score' in the stunning surroundings of the National Trust's Erddig Hall.
Reviews suggest Chapterhouse's interpretation of Pride and Prejudice is not to be missed.
"Could not be better", commented The York Press, while Sussex World declared it a "brilliant interpretation".
On Magazine was also impressed describing the performance as "inspired".
The cast brings the beloved characters to life entailing the struggles of Mrs Bennet, the mother of several unmarried daughters, as she navigates the challenging marriage market of that era.
Tensions mount as sparks fly between Elizabeth Bennet, her younger daughter, and Mr Darcy, leading to an upheaval that threatens to disrupt the lives of everyone around them.
