UP Theater Presents: “Pride & Prejudice, An Original Devised Production” (Apr. 9-13)

March 31, 2025

The longing looks between lovers from across ballrooms and the way they must touch one another with their eyes since to go any further would be forbidden resonate with the queer reader. Queer desire lingers in these glances, in the seconds before hands touch in a dance, and the centimeters of space between two palms. UP Theater’s final mainstage show, Pride & Prejudice, An Original Devised Production, explores these charged scenes as moments of queer potentiality, claiming the novel as ours to read, love, and embody!

April 9-12 at 7:30 p.m. and April 13 at 2:00 p.m. | Mago Hunt Theater
