Pride and Prejudice: A New Musical

I love Pride and Prejudice and I love musicals, and this show was 10/10 for each. It has all the best parts of the original story, along with some new interpretations that make the characters' motivations more understandable.

Really great music, voices, and acting. Lots of humor, too, both original lines from the book and a few great additions. I can imagine Jane Austen watching it with me, not understanding any of the more modern music, but loving the way her story comes to life on stage.

I've watched it twice so far and will watch it many more times -- the music is so beautiful, and the songs fit each part of the story so well.

As a HUGE Jane Austen fan, this musical had been on my watch list for a long time. While I knew the story, I didn't really know what to expect about this adaptation tuning in. It felt a little cringey in the beginning, but once I got into the rhythm of it, I didn't mind those awkward moments. I think it really picked up when Mr. Collins entered the stage. (Why wouldn't it though, right?) At times certain songs went on a little long for me, so I was grateful for the opportunity to fast forward. However, certain songs stayed in my head long after I was listening. The musical does a great job of including original lines from the book. I also like how Lizzie becomes the narrator and takes on an Austen quality too.

I went into this with low expectations but came out with a new favorite film. This musical is fun, entertaining, and (as mentioned above) contains some BOPS. I'm looking at you Mr. Darcy 😏 If you love Jane Austen as I do, stop what you are doing and watch this IMMEDIATELY. This is a game changer. Also the Kristoff from Frozen Live at the Hyperion in DCA is in this so that is a fun bonus! Jane Austen is clapping from heaven at this production.

I liked it, however i really felt like the actor playing elizabeth is fighting the track. She cannot for the life of her find the key. I think it might be music im not sure, its not all bad. But something is so off about the book. Some songs are so good, but others im just hoping it ends. Mr darcy was such a good respite, next to mr bennet that always made me laugh. It's something nice to keep in the background while i do other things, but im not sure. I will say that the girl who played jane needed to be cast as Elizabeth she has got some beautiful pipes on her. And since elizabeth sings like 80% of the musical its a rough time. Her acting is amazing but her singing leaves so much to be desired.

LOVED THIS!!! and I don't even like musicals. MR> Darcy was perfection and Elizabeth was just as I had always pictured her. the whole cast was womderful.
