GOLDEN VALLEY, Minn — An enchanting romance, Miss Bennet: Christmas at Pemberley, reunites Pride and Prejudice characters at the Darcy home for the holidays. In the charmingly imagined sequel, picking up two years after Jane Austen's beloved masterpiece ends, Mary is growing tired of her role as dutiful daughter in the face of her sisters’ romantic escapades.
When Arthur, a “single man in possession of a good fortune,” catches her eye, Mary must learn to be the heroine of her own story. Miss Bennet: Christmas at Pemberley, directed by Christina Baldwin, is on stage through December 29 at the Jungle, located in the Lyn-Lake neighborhood of Minneapolis, 2951 Lyndale Ave. S.
