AS DELIGHTFUL A CREATURE AS EVER APPEARED IN PRINT | Jane Austen Writes Elizabeth Bennet with Lise Rodgers

A one act theatrical entertainment based on the letters of Jane Austen and the text of Pride and Prejudice. Beautifully costumed and elegantly staged – what better way to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the publication of Pride and Prejudice than to get to know Miss Elizabeth Bennet!

LISE RODGERS is an accomplished Melbourne actress whose career has spanned stage, screen and radio. An interest in the world and characters of Jane Austen is the inspiration behind her ‘Jane Austen by Lise Rodgers’ repertoire of performances.
