      Addicted to Darcy?  Bonkers for Big Balls? Lost all Sense and Sensibility? Well stop watching Bridgerton and get ready to enjoy an entirely improvised musical in the style of Jane Austen. Penny Ashton (Olive Copperbottom, Promise and Promiscuity), World Famous hobbit Lori Dungey (LOTR, Cowboy Bebop, Xena) and twinkle fingered Ross Devereux will use your suggestions to spin instant literary magic as they swoon, romp and pianoforte.  Charming suitors, meddlesome mothers, tight breeches and surprisingly well educated girls will all paint a vivid picture in song, dance and passionate hand holding. 

      “Penny Ashton and Lory Dungey – two excellent improvisers – work their magic...” Dominion Post

      “Jane Austen would be rolling in her grave...with delight” Rip It Up Adelaide

      “...seamless mastery of genre and skills.” Theatreview

      “...an engaging entertainment full of fun and frivolity.” NZ Herald

      Please note that masks will be required for the duration of the show. Keeping everyone as safe as possible is Penny’s top priority.
