It's always interesting when sequels are written to famous works because, in order to succeed, they must project some of the same style, skill, and taste of the original author. But, Lauren Gunderson and Margot Melcon have crafted a play that carries on some of the same wit and charm that the book in question, Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, possesses. That makes MISS BENNET: CHRISTMAS AT PEMBERLEY an appealing new addition to the story, with the bookworm Mary finally given her due as a character. While she's certainly less exacting here than in Austen's work, a characteristic derived from her overly studious nature, she's still sort of a nerd-ish young woman with more of a thirst for knowledge than any outwardly evidenced desire for the flesh. The Repertory Theatre St. Louis has wrapped this holiday gift quite nicely, and what's more, there's an enjoyable and entertaining story inside that's both funny and touching. A nice new addition to the usual holiday fare, MISS BENNETT: CHRISTMAS AT PEMBERLEY is a warm return to the world of Jane Austen's characters as witnessed through a new set of lenses. A charming treat for the season!

The Repertory Theatre of St. Louis has announced a casting change for its upcoming production of Miss Bennet: Christmas at Pemberley.

Amy Herzog's Pulitzer Prize finalist script, as you may have guessed by the title, is a story of long journeys - of physical distance and of years. An earthy, 21-year old, Leo, shows up at his grandmother's Greenwich Village apartment in the middle of the night, seeking another place to crash on his cross-country bicycle trip, which inadvertently ends on this night, as he ends up staying with her for several weeks and the two of them strike up a newfound friendship.

Artistic Director Les Waters and Managing Director Jennifer Bielstein are thrilled to announce the cast of 4000 Miles by Amy Herzog. Under the direction of Mike Donahue, the production will feature Michael Goldsmith (Leo Joseph-Connell), Dee Maaske (Vera Joseph), Justine Salata (Bec) and Kristin Villanueva (Amanda). 4000 Miles will preview January 5 and 6, open on January 7 and run through January 31 in the Bingham Theatre as part of the Brown-Forman Series. Tickets are available at 502.584.1205, online at ActorsTheatre.org, or in-person by visiting the Actors Theatre Box Office (316 West Main Street, Louisville, KY 40202).

Portland Stage closes its season with the world premiere of award-winning Maine novelist, Monica Wood's touching first play, Papermaker. Set during the papermill strike of 1989 in the fictional town of Abbott Falls, Maine, the work probes the perceptions, conflicts, and interactions of individuals on both sides of the painful controversy. Handling material already familiar to her readers from her memoir, When We Were the Kennedys, Wood brings to the stage a compassionate grasp of character, a poetic sense of metaphor, and just enough sharp wit and turn of phrase to add spice to this all-too-human drama about ordinary folks whose lives and identities are turned upside down by the bitter labor dispute.
