We are pleased to produce the first complete public performance of Kirke Mechem's Pride and Prejudice in a concert presentation. The eminent Bay Area composer has provided libretto and score for a musical retelling of Jane Austen's story of manners, education, marriage, and money during the British Regency period. Our production is led by NDNU's Debra Lambert.
