“The Family We Make”

The ever-dependable Mary Bennet is growing tired of her role as dutiful middle sister in the face of her siblings’ romantic escapades. When the family visits for Christmas, an unexpected guest sparks Mary’s hopes for independence, an intellectual match — and possibly even love?  Spend the holiday season with your favorite Pride and Prejudice characters, as they gather at Pemberley, the stately home of Mr. and Mrs. Darcy! This charmingly imagined sequel to Jane Austen’s masterwork will delight Austen aficionados and new-comers alike — just the kind of experience multiple generations can enjoy together!

SPECIAL PARENT & BABY PAY SPECIAL MATINEE PERFORMANCE

COF has created a special opportunity where parents can get out to see a play with their babies in tow! The theatre will be prepped and ready, with the house lights kept illuminated so that parents can keep an eye on their little ones. Baby changing station will be available in the restroom, and space will be set aside in the lobby where parents can retreat in the event that a little angel decides to turn into a little monster. Best of all, patrons can attend the show for a donation of their choosing, and babies get in for free!
