Miss Bennet: Christmas at Pemberley
by Lauren Gunderson & Margot Melcon

A regional premiere presented as part of BETC’s Season 13
December 6 – 24, 2018

Lauren Gunderson and Margot Melcon bring their charming Pride and Prejudice sequel to Boulder for the holidays. Constantly overshadowed by her four sisters, Mary Bennet, the bookish middle child, longs for a “large life.” As she searches for her own identity, she unexpectedly discovers something else…the possibility of true love. If only she can survive the holidays with her sisters! Winner of Chicago’s 2017 Jefferson Award for Best New Play.

“Beautifully presented, with stunning costumes, finely detailed set and lighting, and a group of rather charming actors, working well together.” Westword

“BETC’s latest early Christmas gift to theater-lovers could very well become a new holiday classic.” Boulder Weekly
