Join the fun at Pemberley Ranch with this smart and clever spin on Jane Austen’s great romance! Pride and Prejudice gets a wacky makeover in this tale of money, marriage and manners set in the Wild West. All of the usual characters are here with some eccentric behaviors, diversions and interests in a play where the idioms are as colorful as the costumes.With encouragement from Mrs. Bennet, who’s looking to get her daughters off the farm and hitched, Mr. Bennet pays a visit to Mr. Bingley. Bingley, who just bought Netherfield Ranch, is new to the neighborhood and “single as a polecat.” That visit results in the invitation to a ball, where the Bennet girls get to meet some fancy gents. Bingley takes a fancy to Jane while his friend, Mr. Darcy, also eligible and wealthy, looks down his nose at the whole clan, but later becomes enamored with Lizzie. Meanwhile, Preacher Collins proposes to Lizzie but is turned down, and Lydia falls for Lieutenant Wickham, a handsome fortune hunter. In the end, love, not money, rules the day as three daughters end up married and Mrs. Bennet joyously proclaims that Lizzie is “gonna have a gold plated six-shooter an’ a beaver skin coat!”
