Jane Austen in 89 Minutes
Jane Austen in 89 Minutes is a comedy in which a cast of madcap ladies and gents bring all six of Jane Austen’s beloved novels to comic life and includes modern day zingers about Jane Austen’s fame, fandom, movies, and TV series. The play takes place in a wrinkle in time, the present day intermingled with England’s Regency Era, 1811-1816. At several points, Jane Austen has to rein in her characters when they run amok and try to take over the show.
The cast includes Todd Andrew Ball, Alison Blanchard, Steven G. Frankenfield, Megan Deford, Branda Lock, Michael Mullen, Holly Sidell.
Syrie James is the playwright and director.
