Pride and Prejudice

Presenting Jane, Elizabeth, Mary, Lydia and Kitty Bennet! These sisters are a recipe for laughter, disaster and confusion.

There couldn’t have been a better name: Pride and Prejudice. Perfectly describing the book!
Jane Austen’s famously intolerable Mr. Darcy has readers wondering about the cross, cranky old man.

He’s clearly one of the more eligible and handsome bachelors in the region, but far to cranky to fall in love. Or is he?

The two younger sisters, Lydia and Kitty, are infatuated with the militia that recently come to town. When the army moves on, Lydia accepts an invitation to accompany them, but exactly how desperate is she for a scarlet backed husband?

Poor Jane, too is thwarted in love. Her mother, the worthy Mrs. Bennet is expecting an marriage proposal from the rich Mr. Bingley every day. He however never comes. Why is he staying away? And could Mr. Darcy have had anything to do with it?
