Jane Austen's PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, A Musical
REVIEWS

"Just when you start to despair about the art of storytelling, along comes Jane Austen..."Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, a musical"...this delightful adaptation is remarkably true to its source material, showing an incisive grasp of character and narrative drive...this gorgeously sung show captures the essence of the cherished novel with grace and skill."

David Rooney
THE NEW YORK TIMES

"One of many shrewd decisions marking the gratifyingly successful adaptation of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, is the inclusion of Austen herself as a main character…

David Finkle
THEATREMANIA

"Unexpected pleasures abound in this romantic, lyrical and just about perfect production of "Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice"...Stylish in its simplicity, it's one of the finest all around productions of NYMF I have ever seen......'Bravo!' to everyone involved."

Oscar E. Moore
FROM THE REAR MEZZANINE

"...a solid piece of musical theatre that will thrill fans of Jane Austen to the very core. ...If you're a fan of sweeping romantic musicals and/or Jane Austen, you will flip for Pride and Prejudice."

Zak Risinger
THEASY.COM

"...Ultimately, the fact that a musical can't mimic a novel's subtlety hardly mattered; "Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice" was a smashing success within its own form... The on-the-nose cast and devoted creators won over the festival audience completely; given the buzz in the packed house during intermission and after the show, I wouldn't be surprised if this production ends up back in New York for a lengthier run."

Sarah Seltzer, SPEAKEASY
THE WALL STREET JOURNAL

"**** Thoroughly magnificent. This goes beyond a top NYMF show; it's one of the finest musicals to grace NYC. The entire run quickly sold out. If you don't have tickets, see this when it moves to Broadway—and elevates Broadway with its astonishing intelligence, sensitivity, ambitious vision, and nuanced care to every detail."
