Join live musicians, delectable tea and treats and the company members of “Jane Austen Unscripted,” in a modern Regency comedy in the blooming Marshall Gardens.
Directed by Sara Mountjoy-Pepka and Paul Rogan, “Jane Austen Unscripted” welcomes guests into an English garden set with party table seating and all the trimmings. GMTea Experience Ticket guests are seated at tables closest to the action, and includes tea and treats curated by local shops and purveyors of wonderful things.
Jane Austen is without a doubt one of the most enduring author’s of her day. Her wit, societal examination, and ability to create some of literature’s most charismatic and poignant heroines sets the stage (literally) for a delightfully paced comedy that erupts minute by minute.
Having only written six novels, now, Impro Theatre’s “Jane Austen Unscripted” gives audiences the chance to not only imagine the other books she might have written, but create one on-the-spot. The company starts with audience suggestions and deftly creates a world of headstrong young women, brooding noblemen and eccentric relatives. With the foundation of mesmerizing courtship and manners that come undone, guests are treated to a unique story that just might rival one of Austen’s delicious novels.
“Amazing! The troupe spins an entire play into comedy gold right before your eyes.”
