Olivier-award winning Pride & Prejudice* (*sort of) returns to Leeds Grand Theatre

The unique and audacious retelling of Jane Austen’s classic love story, Pride and Prejudice* (*sort of), returns to Leeds Grand Theatre from Mon 26 to Sat 31 May 2025.

This new production will be directed by its writer, Isobel McArthur, who is winner of both the Evening Standard Award and the Olivier Award – an unprecedented feat for a young female writer.

Produced by David Pugh & Cunard and Newcastle Theatre Royal, this new tour of the West End sensation stars: Emma Rose Creaner (Peter Pan, Tartuffe) as Tillie, Charlotte Lucas, Charles Bingley and Miss Bingley; Eleanor Kane (Fun Home, Hex) as Anne, Mary Bennet, Lydia Bennet and Mr Gardiner; Rhianna McGreevy (The Winter’s Tale, Shakespeare’s Globe) as Flo, Mrs Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy; Naomi Preston Low (Further Than the Furthest Thing, The Wind and The Rain) as Effie and Elizabeth Bennet; and Christine Steel (A Midsummer Night’s Dream) as Clara, Jane Bennet, and Lady Catherine de Burgh. Isobel Donkin, Susie Barrett and Georgia Firth complete the company.

Men, money and microphones will be fought over in this irreverent but affectionate adaptation where the stakes couldn’t be higher when it comes to romance. The show features a string of pop classics including Young Hearts Run Free, Will You Love Me Tomorrow and You’re So Vain. It’s the 1800s. It’s party time. Let the ruthless matchmaking begin.

• New Production directed by its writer, multi-award-winning Isobel Mcarthur
