As Christmas approaches, Mrs Bennett is more concerned than ever about marrying off her five daughters. Her husband, stricken with a stomach bug which keep him out of her way for prolonged periods, holds many a conversation with his wife from the safety of the bathroom and agrees to a Grand Christmas Ball to which Mrs Bennett intends to invite every eligible male in the area, including a newcomer, Eric Arcy, who no-one has yet seen. He sounds the ideal match for her daughter, Elizabeth – but this is Eric!
Complicated relationships and the interference of Arcy’s, two friends Mr Bingley and Mr Bradford, make matters worse as the guest list turns out to be a little stranger than Mrs Bennett had first imagined.
A cast of considerable size, full of surprises and with some very special guests takes one of the most romantic stories of all time – and creates havoc with it! However, as with any Eric-shaped makeover, Eric’s Pride and Prejudice is filled with sensational 60s songs, dancing, laughter and lots of fun – a great way to kick start your festive season!
