“Panther Pride!”

Elizabeth Bennet wants nothing more than to work hard during her junior year at Longbourn High School and go to Yale. She doesn’t want any drama, especially not with boys. Enter: Will Darcy. The snobbiest boy ever has just started Longbourn High School and is causing problems in every part of Elizabeth’s life. Her family–her crazy sister Lydia and her social-climbing mom–don’t make things easier for her either. But, despite wanting to stay out of drama, Elizabeth is not one to let bad things slide. “Panther Pride!” is a modern and lively adaptation of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice.
