- **Event Name**: By A Lady - The Life and Wit of Jane Austen
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 15 Mar, 2026 at 03:30 pm
- **Event Description**: It is a truth universally acknowledged that Jane Austen was one of the wittiest observers of human relationships, and female friendships, who ever put pen to parchment. By A Lady tells Jane Austen’s life story from her own writing, woven with favourite moments from the immortal characters she created, including Elizabeth and Jane, Emma and Harriet, the Dashwood sisters, Mrs Bennet, and (hold on to your bonnets) Lady Catherine de Bourgh - not forgetting Mr Bennet, Darcy, Captain Wentworth, Mr Collins, and many more. 

Set against a sparkling musical backdrop that surprises as much as it delights, we invite you to loosen your stays, and enjoy this celebration of Austen’s wit, sharpness, and sheer delight in the foibles of human behaviour.

From the same team who brought Red Sky at Sunrise: Laurie Lee in Words &amp; Music, A Beautiful Thread: Thomas Hardy in Words &amp; Music, and GEORGE Eliot in Words and Music to the stage.

Performed by two (delightful) actors, Jane Austen’s words are (respectfully) penned by Deirdre Shields, with music (mischievously) arranged by David Le Page (Violin) and Nick Stringfellow (Cello). By A Lady is (graciously) directed by Judy Reaves.
