Pride & Prejudice

Jane Austen’s Pride & Prejudice as you have never seen it before, fast, funny, and performed by just two actors.

Join Us for Pride & Prejudice!

Piers and Suzannah Hampton take on over twenty characters between them in a joyful new two-hander that fully honours Austen’s story, wit, and unforgettable characters, while leaning into the sheer comedy of watching two people attempt the impossible. Expect lightning-fast character changes, sharp observation, and a playful theatricality that delights Austen devotees and converts the sceptics.

This brand-new adaptation, written and directed by the performers themselves, keeps all the romance, misunderstanding, and social sparring you love, with added contemporary songs and a generous sense of fun. Yes, the proposals are disastrous. Yes, the insults are exquisite. And yes, there may even be a knowing nod to a certain wet-shirt moment.

Both trained at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School, Piers and Suzannah’s combined credits include the RSC, the BBC, the West End, and Shakespeare’s Globe. Whether you adore Austen or think she is not for you, this Pride & Prejudice promises to surprise, charm, and make you laugh.
