Snapped: Austentatious

Austentatious, the improvised Jane Austen Novel had the Bath leg of its nationwide tour at The Forum on Saturday the 28th of February, as part of the Bath Literature Festival. TGtB was there to enjoy the regency brilliance...

The Sunday Times ‘Hot Pick for 2015′ and the first event to sell out on the Bath Literature Festival programme last year, comedy players Austentatious: An Improvised Jane Austen Novel returned to Bath by popular demand. From Mansfield Shark to Darcy & Hutch, no two shows are the same. Eloquent, irreverent and 100% improvised. “Constant wit and verve”- The Times. “A joy to behold the laughs seldom stop”- The Guardian

With a cast that included Cariad Lloyd (Fosters Edinburgh Comedy Award Best Newcomer Nominee 2011), Rachel Parris (Hackney Empire New Act Of The Year Finalist 2011), Amy Cooke-Hodgson (Olivier Award winning La Boheme, Showstopper!), Andrew Murray (Private Eye), Graham Dickson (The Messiah, Scooter Thomas, The Pride), and Joseph Morpurgo (Monkey Toast).

They performed their theatrical delights to packed out houses in their fair Scottish lands, and won themselves another collection of five and four star reviews, as The Guardian claimed “one of the most enjoyable 60 mins on the fringe”.
