An hilarious, one-(freakishly talented)-woman show. Kiwi Penny Ashton collaborates with Jane Austen (deceased) and tackles all of her characters with song, dance and appalling cross-stitching.
Flushed by 12 years of sold out successes from Edinburgh to Adelaide to Toronto and beyond, comes New Zealander Penny Ashton’s collaboration with Jane Austen (deceased).
Celebrate Austen’s 250th birthday by joining our musical heroine Elspeth, as she battles literary snobbery, cousin Horatio’s digestions and her mother’s nerves, armed only with a blushing countenance, excellent ukulele skills and being quite bright, you know… for a girl.
Adelaide Fringe’s Weekly Award for Best Theatre (2015).
Presented by Penelope Ashton.
