PRESS
“Director Krista Jackson embroiders the intricate threads of Austen’s plot into a handsome, pleasing stage sampler — homely enough on the surface, but with a subversive scarlet slash of feminist outrage stitched indelibly around its edges.”
— Randall King, Winnipeg Free Press
“Peterson’s script and director Krista Jackson’s production highlight the relationship of the two older sisters that forms the story’s core. Julie Lumsden’s graceful take on Marianne and Heather Russell’s stoic Elinor give us relatable and believable characters whom we genuinely want to see happy.They’re backed up by strong supporting performances in the cast of 13 mostly local actors”
— Joff Schmidt, CBC SCENE
