The New York Musical Theatre Festival presents Austentatious, a new comedic musical with book by Matt Board, Jane Caplow, Kate Gavlin, Luisa Hinchliff, and Joe Slabe; music and lyrics by Matt Board and Joe Slabe.
"A sold-out hit at the 2006 Philadelphia Fringe Festival, Austentatious follows the adventures of the Central Riverdale Amateur Players as they stage a new adaptation of Jane Austen's 'Pride and Prejudice.' With a clueless director, a jealous diva and the world's best stage manager, bad theater has never been so good!" explain press notes.
Performances are at the Julia Miles Theater (424 West 55th Street). Schedule: September 21 at 8PM; September 23 at 4:30PM; September 23 at 8PM; September 25 at 4:30PM; and September 29 at 4:30PM. Tickets $20. For more information visit www.nymf.org
