| Style | One-act comedy play, in which Geoff Bamber exacts a gentle revenge on Jane Austen. In theory, there are multiple settings, but it is remarkable how similar Longbourn and Netherfield look... |
| Synopsis | The Bennet sisters are shopping their father into penury. He needs to marry them off (preferably without an expensive wedding.) There's Mr Bingley who's keen on Jane, Mr Collins who is keen on anyone who'll have him (which seems to limit the field), Captain Wickham, a military cad, and Mr Darcy who seems to be intent on making trouble or making whoopee (possibly at one and the same time). |
