It starts with a truth universally acknowledged: that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife… but it should also be acknowledged that Elizabeth Bennett is far too intelligent and independent for all that. It's fair to say, however, that the arrival of Mr. Darcy has somewhat shaken things up at Longbourn, but it’s fine! It’s nothing Lizzy can’t handle. As long as she can keep Mother from having a heart attack, one sister off the drink, another sister away from the piano, and the ever vexing clergyman from counting the silver.
An effervescent new adaptation of Jane Austen’s most popular novel comes crashing into Sydney, replete with ballroom dancing, rum punch, and a healthy lack of respect for polite society.
