Summer Theatre on the Lawn – Pride and Prejudice at Cogges
11 July, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 9:50 pm
Illyria presents Pride and Prejudice. Enjoy Jane Austen’s glorious social comedy in the perfect setting of the Cogges Manor House lawn.
In a whirlwind of balls, dinners and very eligible officers, Lizzy Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy stand alone as the only sane, thoughtful people – and they hate each other! Or do they? Can she see beyond his pride, and can he overcome her prejudice, in order to achieve happiness?
If your idea of Jane Austen is stuffy costume drama then this sparkling adaptation may make you change your mind. Enjoy the beautiful setting, grab some refreshments from the bar and have a ball as the irrepressible Illyria sharpen their claws to bring you Jane Austen at her vibrant best!
Running time (approx): 2hrs 20min (including 20 minute interval)
Gates open 6.30pm, show starts 7pm

An outdoor theatre production on the beautiful Cogges Manor lawn – the perfect stage for open-air theatre
