As the Bennet sisters try to navigate their way toward love and marriage, Austen humorously skewers the hypocrisies and absurdities of the English class system. This sharp social satire has it all: wit, romance and lots of dancing! Performed by the Aquila Theatre from New York.

Operatizers: Dreams and Desires is a production of opera, operetta, and classic musical theatre's most beloved arias, duets, trios, and ensembles complete with staging and narration. The theme is based around the dreamy and serene, as well as the tumultuous and passionate, with selections by Puccini, Donizetti, Verdi, Rossini, Rodgers & Hammerstein, Bernstein, and more.
