    Excellent rendition!
    Of all the audio renditions of Jane Austin’s works, this is by far the best! Such amazing voice actors and actresses! Picking up the true character personalities and emotions! The added music and background sounds were all so very well done too!

    A Different Take
    This is such a fresh and original production. I’m really enjoying it. The actors are excellent and they bring a slightly different interpretation to some of their characters’ dialogues than we’ve heard or seen in other adaptations. Just when you think there’s nothing new to discover in Austen, along comes this delightful surprise. Can’t wait for Persuasion!
  • yyuuuppp

    Perfect, by any means.
  • listener from Boise
    Lovely rendition of the Austen classic!
    I absolutely loved this podcast! It brought to life Austen’s words beautifully. I will probably listen again and again.

    This Show Makes Me Perfectly and Incandescently Happy
    Pride and Prejudice is one of my absolute all-time favorite stories. I love the book, the 2005 movie, and the 1995 show. So imagine my surprise and my delight when I discovered this podcast. The story of Pride and Prejudice is very comforting and one of my many happy places. It helps me to stay positive and optimistic, and it also helps me to stop stressing. Thank you for making this amazing podcast that I can take with me anywhere and everywhere. Yours Truly, A Delighted Fan

    I’ve Listened a Dozen Times!
    Yes, this audio play is my happy place! Well done, all! Bravo and a million curtain calls! A delightful place to dwell during the current pandemic. I anxiously await your version of “Persuasion” - my favorite novel. The acting is over the top wonderful. Kudos and break a leg!
  • noprobbob13
    Most satisfying version ever!
    For fans of the movies and book, this takes the cake! So many things that made me grumpy about fave screen versions were answered so well by this production! I got excited by the story again.❤️ Book fans—they included all the book bits that never seem to make it to screen! Eeee!
  • J.La’Shelle
    Wonderful
    This podcast draws in your attention & transports you into the presence of the story! I highly recommend it.
  • hoboloco
    Great
    Well done ... dynamic and engaging !
  • YuuuXie
    Absolutely love it!
    Thanks for making such a great dramatized full cast for pride and prejudice! I really enjoy listening to it! P.S. the voice of Elizabeth is really similar to Jennifer Ehle, the “Lizzy” in the 1995 bbc mini series. Love it!
  • emmy_joy_louise
    Absolutely delightful!
    Love the acting and sound effects. Fabulous! I just had a baby, and am grateful for something fun to listen too. Thank you.
  • Dee Lightful
    2 in 1 - Fabulous! To the very end…
    What an incredible reading of Austen’s Pride & Prejudice by a very talented group. I cannot wait for them to do more (please don’t ever stop!) Then on top of the beloved story, the out … credits 🤔- our mystery lady tells you who performs in each episode and may entertain you on the way - well worth listening to every single second 😁 (Thank you mystery lady - you have had me laughing out loud in some episodes)

    A podcast I didn’t know I wanted
    What a delight to listen to. I had been wanting to re-read Pride and Prejudice recently as I have been watching both the movie and miniseries lately but wanted to feel even more details that Austen wrote so well. This podcast allows me to experience this greater attention to detail while I do other work. The narrating is excellent and the quality of the voice acting improves every episode. The people reading Elizabeth and Jane I think particularly capture their characters well. I particularly am fond of the outros and cannot bring myself to skip any of them. What a pleasant find.
  • 1234Delilah
    Fantastic!
    This adaptation is delightful & witty, and the quality of the audio and the actors is fantastic. I am particularly partial to the outros...
  • Nance Schultz
    Quite pleasant rendition
    The quality of the recording increases with episodes. Several of the actors are excellent a pleasure to listen to. A couple have stilted choppy speech, presumably due to the local accents’ cadence.
  • MyBabyLooksLikeASeaMonster
    Most delightful escapist podcast
    This podcast happened at the perfect time for me and so many others. During lockdowns, chaos, reckonings, I just needed a way to escape. This was so well done, so well edited and acted, and the hilarious sign-offs were everything! Thank you for bringing so much Austen joy!

    Second encounter with Ballarat
    First was the excellent Dr. Blake mystery series. This production is even better. I just wish I could see it. Thanks to the whole company for all of your efforts. Can’t wait for your next production.
  • Jibbers11
    Love Love Love!
    The BEST podcast! I am enjoying the whole cast and the lady at the end “butchering” The Thomas the train theme song in her “ darkest hour” is a delight!
  • piper pickel
    Top Notch
    I’ve enjoyed listening to this theatre’s rendition of Pride and Prejudice. This is a top notch performance! I’m waiting for the next season and hope that I don’t have to wait long!!
  • DonLawson
    Absolutely Brillant
    I absolutely love this podcast. They’ve brilliantly balanced having a narrator reading the story with actors reciting the lines. I wish every audiobook was just like this! I hope the show continues after P&P with maybe their rendition of another Jane Austen story.
  • Catlynnd
    Excellent!
    I am loving this and wait with baited breathe for the next installment. Thank you for lifting my spirits during this crazy time. The acting is amazing and I see the show play out in my minds eye as I listen. Thank you for lifting my spirits! Well done, well done, bravo!!
  • Funtimes95
    Love love love it
    It is so fun to listen to this dramatization. The actors really bring the story to life, and we were already in a Jane Austen novel, so I didn’t think it could be even better! The actor who plays Elizabeth nails it- fantastic performance.
  • sarafitzwilliamdarcyII
    Charming AF!
    I am not exaggerating when I say that this lovely podcast has offered me a renewed appreciation for Pride and Prejudice. Upon starting it, I found myself opening the book again, and rewatching all iterations of the film. Thank you very much, Ballarat National Theatre and the ladies who make this podcast possible!
  • BoookishSara77
    So much fun!
    Really enjoying “reading” the book again with this wonderful group of performers. Delightful!
  • Benjamin's mommmy
    Sweet and Enthusiastic
    I was excited to find this podcast! All the actors are so enthusiastic about the story, which is so important for Austen’s work. Thank you for doing this! ✨✨✨
