...a stunning feat of performance and literary wizardry. And incidentally, its hilarious."
- LA TIMES Magazine

Jane Austen only wrote six novels in her lifetime, but they are some of the most beloved tales of love and misunderstanding, wit and wisdom, and passion and betrayal ever written. Impro Theatre delivers a new Jane Austen in the improvisational theatre art form, bringing to life Austens passionate, willful, flirty women in exuberate verbal joust with handsome, brooding young noblemen. Hearts are broken, secrets are revealed and true love wins out in the end. Or does it? The essence of Austens brilliant and timeless romantic comedies and social satires is brought faithfully to life by this expert team of funny and gifted actors.

Associate Director: Brian Lohmann
Cast: Tracy Burns, Lisa Fredrickson, Brian Jones, Stephen Kearin, Brian Lohmann, Nick Massouh, Jo McGinley, Dan OConnor, Edi Patterson, Paul Rogan, Michele Spears and Floyd Van Buskirk
