Jane Austen Unscripted

This is an amazing lineup of comedians.  If you're thinking, "chick show," you couldn't be more wrong.  I haven't seen them, but I know it's going to be amazing.  Here's what I know about the show...

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. Now, for the first time in two centuries, Impro Theatre will deliver a new Jane Austen story every night. Passionate, willful women flirt and verbally 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 Austen’s brilliant and timeless romantic comedies and social satires is brought faithfully to life by Impro Theater, an expert team of funny and gifted actors, whose recent explorations of great literary figures include Shakespeare, Dickens, Sondheim, and Tennessee Williams.
