This is quite an odd adaptation of the Jane Austen story, carried off with lots of energy and commitment by the three-person cast. It's not really a spoof but there are lots of funny moments and many of the characters are played so as to be ridiculous stereotypes. In a way it reminded me somewhat of The Tragedy of Madame Bovary from Jermyn Street last year.
It does have one particular plot twist which isn't in the book, and which leads to a couple of quite poignant scenes, and I found the ending a bit confusing. On the whole though, I enjoyed it. Three and a half to four stars from me.
