The Complete Works of Jane Austen (Abridged!)

This fun, funny, and fast-paced romp through the masterpieces of Jane Austen completely sold out it’s opening two week run at the Alma Theatre in Bristol, and is now touring the UK.

Three nimble actors take on all of Austen’s beloved heroines, friends, and love interests—and her incisive social satire—in just 80 minutes. 

So, join Schoolhouse Productions with their gloriously silly, and *entirely accurate* whizz around the world of Jane Austen!

It is a truth universally acknowledged that an audience in possession of high spirits must be in want of a ticket to this big-hearted comedy that will delight Janeites and newcomers alike.
