It opens at the Churchill Theatre, Bromley in September and will then visit Norwich Theatre Royal, Cambridge Corn Exchange, The Lowry in Salford, Curve Leicester, Woking's New Victoria Theatre, Hall for Cornwall in Truro, Birmingham Rep and Richmond Theatre, with further dates in 2017.
Directed by Deborah Bruce, the production will star Felicity Montagu (Alan's long-suffering PA Lynn in I'm Alan Partridge) as Mrs Bennet. Further casting has yet to be announced.
