From November 20-22, 2025, the Chatham High School Theatre Department will
present their fall production of Pride & Prejudice. Jane Austin’s classic novel is
given a fresh, feminine, and fun twist–all while keeping the same beloved characters
(just with a little more spice)! The play follows the four Bennet sisters who are on a
quest to “ensnare” a wealthy future husband. But Lizzy dreams of more than the
schemes and games of courtship. A young woman with a bright mind and free-spirit,
she is determined to avoid the trappings of a loveless marriage while laughing at the
foolish antics of others. When she meets the solemn Mr. Darcy, she immediately
judges him to be all that she detests: proud, arrogant, rude and so without civility that
she can hardly endure his presence. Lizzy comes to discover, however, that first
impressions may not be all that they seem and that she must learn the true character
of others before jumping to harsh conclusions.
Performances will be held Thursday, November 20 at 4:30 PM, Friday,
November 21 and Saturday, November 22 at 7:00 PM.
