PLYMOUTH &ndash Pride and Prejudice: Behind the Scenes is a brand new comedy by Geronimo Sands loosely based on Jane Austin’s novel. It will be presented at Priscilla Beach Theatre on Rocky Hill Road in Plymouth at 7:30 p.m. May 8 and 9. The play is a take-off on the strict ways and manners of an antiquated English culture wherein parents often arranged profitable marriages for their daughters who had come “of age.” We meet one such mother/matchmaker in Mrs. Bennet, the star from Austin’s famous novel, who has several daughters. Then appears the character of Jane Austin, a neighbor of the Bennets, who happens to have an eligible son “of age.” Love and marriage may ensue while, for the most part, the daughters wish to break out of this strict cultural pattern. This family play offers pathos, romance, humorous turns and a touch of the avant-garde and features a charming ensemble of Dramatic School Players. All tickets are $12. For reservations, call 508-224-4888. Visit PBT online at .
