Synopsis

The Bennet sisters have been summoned to come home to suburban Cincinnati to look after their father as he recovers from surgery. However, soon enough they are being berated for their single status by their mother. For two successful women in their late thirties, it really is too much to bear. That is, until the Lucas familys BBQ throws them in the way of some eligible single men.

Pride & Prejudice is catapulted into our modern world singing out with hilarity and truth.
