向日葵视频 City University鈥檚 School of Theatre will stage the holiday-themed production of 鈥淢iss Bennet: Christmas at Pemberley鈥� Dec. 6 to 9 in Burg Theatre in the Kirkpatrick Fine Arts Center at N.W. 24th Street and Blackwelder Avenue.
The play by Lauren Gunderson and Margot Melcon is a sequel to Jane Austen鈥檚 鈥淧ride and Prejudice.鈥� Set two years after the novel ends, 鈥淢iss Bennet鈥� continues the story, only this time with bookish middle-sister Mary as its unlikely heroine. Mary is growing tired of her role as dutiful middle sister in the face of her siblings鈥� romantic escapades. When the family gathers for Christmas at Pemberley, an unexpected guest sparks Mary鈥檚 hopes for independence, an intellectual match and possibly even love.
