GEORGIANA & KITTY: CHRISTMAS AT PEMBERLEY
By Lauren Gunderson & Margot Melcon
Co-Directed by Christina Baldwin & Angela Timberman
November 19 - December 23, 2022
The cherished characters from Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice return for a third and final installment of this heartwarming story.
Georgiana Darcy is an accomplished pianist but wary of romance. Kitty Bennet is a bright-eyed optimist and a perfect best friend. The youngest Darcy and Bennet sisters have become fast friends are ready for their own adventures in life and love, starting with the arrival of an admirer and secret correspondent. Meddlesome families and outdated expectations won’t stop these determined young women from forging their own way in a holiday tale filled with music, ambition, sisterhood, and love!
The Jungle Theater is excited to profile the perseverance of women in this rolling world premiere in partnership with Marin Theatre Company and Northlight Theatre.

TICKETS
As part of the Jungle’s values, we believe a play isn’t complete without an audience and to make our performances accessible to our community, we re excited to continue PAY AS YOU ARE pricing for single ticket purchasers.
PAY AS YOU ARE pricing asks those who routinely pay $45 for theater tickets to pay that amount; it is the actual fair market value of the ticket. If an audience member needs to pay less, they can choose to do so. Likewise by selecting to pay more than the market price, you help cover the cost of someone else’s ticket and welcome more audiences to the Jungle Theater.
