THE CRAZY COWGIRLS OF PEMBERLEY RANCH!

Book your tickets now for the Upper School Fall Play, November 10, 11, 12

The box office is now open for reservations for The Crazy Cowgirls of Pemberley Ranch. Performances are 7 p.m. on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, November 10, 11, and 12. Join the fun at Pemberley Ranch with this smart and clever spin on Jane Austen’s famous romance! 

Pride and Prejudice gets a wacky makeover in this tale of money, marriage, and manners set in the Wild West fields of Calico, Texas. All of the usual characters are here with some eccentric behaviors, diversions, and interests in a play where the idioms are as colorful as the costumes. With encouragement from Mrs. Bennet, who’s looking to get her daughters off the farm and hitched, Mr. Bennet pays a visit to Mr. Bingley. Bingley, who just bought Netherfield Ranch, is new to the neighborhood and “single as a polecat.” That visit results in the invitation to a ball, where the Bennet girls get to meet some fancy gents. Bingley takes a liking to Jane while his friend, Mr. Darcy, also eligible and wealthy, looks down his nose at the whole clan, but later becomes enamored with Lizzie. Meanwhile, Preacher Collins proposes to Lizzie but is turned down, and Lydia falls for Lieutenant Wickham, a handsome fortune hunter. In the end, love, not money, rules the day as three daughters end up married and Mrs. Bennet joyously proclaims that Lizzie is “gonna have a gold-plated six-shooter an’ a beaver skin coat!”

Tickets are free for students and employees and $10 for adults.
