Of all the audio renditions of Jane Austin’s works, this is by far the best! Such amazing voice actors and actresses! Picking up the true character personalities and emotions! The added music and background sounds were all so very well done too!

This is my favorite audio drama ever! Loved the different voices and the feeling in them. The outro was hilarious to listen to and music was wonderful!

This is such a fresh and original production. I’m really enjoying it. The actors are excellent and they bring a slightly different interpretation to some of their characters’ dialogues than we’ve heard or seen in other adaptations. Just when you think there’s nothing new to discover in Austen,...Read full review »

Perfect, by any means.

I absolutely loved this podcast! It brought to life Austen’s words beautifully. I will probably listen again and again.

Pride and Prejudice is one of my absolute all-time favorite stories. I love the book, the 2005 movie, and the 1995 show. So imagine my surprise and my delight when I discovered this podcast. The story of Pride and Prejudice is very comforting and one of my many happy places. It helps me to stay...Read full review »

Yes, this audio play is my happy place! Well done, all! Bravo and a million curtain calls! A delightful place to dwell during the current pandemic. I anxiously await your version of “Persuasion” - my favorite novel. The acting is over the top wonderful. Kudos and break a leg!

For fans of the movies and book, this takes the cake! So many things that made me grumpy about fave screen versions were answered so well by this production! I got excited by the story again.❤️ Book fans—they included all the book bits that never seem to make it to screen! Eeee!
noprobbob13 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/02/22
This podcast draws in your attention & transports you into the presence of the story! I highly recommend it.

A lovely full cast reading, well worth the listen.

Well done ... dynamic and engaging !
hoboloco via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/10/22
Thanks for making such a great dramatized full cast for pride and prejudice! I really enjoy listening to it! P.S. the voice of Elizabeth is really similar to Jennifer Ehle, the “Lizzy” in the 1995 bbc mini series. Love it!

This has just made me love Pride and Prejudice even more and kicked me into a deep dive of her books. I can’t wait for BNT’s next Austen podcast!
Pipv2.0 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/07/21
Love the acting and sound effects. Fabulous! I just had a baby, and am grateful for something fun to listen too. Thank you.

What an incredible reading of Austen’s Pride & Prejudice by a very talented group. I cannot wait for them to do more (please don’t ever stop!) Then on top of the beloved story, the out … credits 🤔- our mystery lady tells you who performs in each episode and may entertain you on the way -...Read full review »

Great listening apart from Mrs Bennet for the actors voice grates, Lady Catherine on the other hand had a delightful accent.
racttoy via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 07/20/21
Why aren’t all podcasts like this? I felt like I was right there with Lizzy and Jane and Darcy. Lovely background sound effects and I think the Narrator does such a fabulous job engaging with the audience.
LindySmithLaughs via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/25/21
What a delight to listen to. I had been wanting to re-read Pride and Prejudice recently as I have been watching both the movie and miniseries lately but wanted to feel even more details that Austen wrote so well. This podcast allows me to experience this greater attention to detail while I do...Read full review »

This adaptation is delightful & witty, and the quality of the audio and the actors is fantastic. I am particularly partial to the outros...
1234Delilah via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/20/21
The quality of the recording increases with episodes. Several of the actors are excellent a pleasure to listen to. A couple have stilted choppy speech, presumably due to the local accents’ cadence.
Nance Schultz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/17/21
Well made and acted out. Thank you.
TootyBrooke via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/07/21
This podcast happened at the perfect time for me and so many others. During lockdowns, chaos, reckonings, I just needed a way to escape. This was so well done, so well edited and acted, and the hilarious sign-offs were everything! Thank you for bringing so much Austen joy!
MyBabyLooksLikeASeaMonster via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/04/21
First was the excellent Dr. Blake mystery series. This production is even better. I just wish I could see it. Thanks to the whole company for all of your efforts. Can’t wait for your next production.
Kittiwake vet via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/01/21
Wonderful adaptation, and it’s so nice to be able to listen to a lot of quotes and letters (portrayed so well by the actors) which haven’t been covered on screen, as well as really nice apt additions to dialogue.
Vsco editer via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/26/21
The BEST podcast! I am enjoying the whole cast and the lady at the end “butchering” The Thomas the train theme song in her “ darkest hour” is a delight!
Jibbers11 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/20/21
I have absolutely loved every minute of Pride and Prejudice. BNT is a great local theatre company and happy that your hardwork is being appreciated around the world. Once your final episode is aired, I’m going to listen to the whole production through over a weekend- What treat.
Angus.D via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/17/21
I’ve enjoyed listening to this theatre’s rendition of Pride and Prejudice. This is a top notch performance! I’m waiting for the next season and hope that I don’t have to wait long!!
piper pickel via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/31/20
I am loving this podcast. So well done. I thoroughly enjoy the entertaining outro each time as well as the acknowledgment of country.
Snooosie via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/12/20
I absolutely love this podcast. They’ve brilliantly balanced having a narrator reading the story with actors reciting the lines. I wish every audiobook was just like this! I hope the show continues after P&P with maybe their rendition of another Jane Austen story.
DonLawson via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/26/20
I am loving this and wait with baited breathe for the next installment. Thank you for lifting my spirits during this crazy time. The acting is amazing and I see the show play out in my minds eye as I listen. Thank you for lifting my spirits! Well done, well done, bravo!!
Catlynnd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/26/20
It is so fun to listen to this dramatization. The actors really bring the story to life, and we were already in a Jane Austen novel, so I didn’t think it could be even better! The actor who plays Elizabeth nails it- fantastic performance.
Funtimes95 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/18/20
I am not exaggerating when I say that this lovely podcast has offered me a renewed appreciation for Pride and Prejudice. Upon starting it, I found myself opening the book again, and rewatching all iterations of the film. Thank you very much, Ballarat National Theatre and the ladies who make this...Read full review »

Really enjoying “reading” the book again with this wonderful group of performers. Delightful!

I was excited to find this podcast! All the actors are so enthusiastic about the story, which is so important for Austen’s work. Thank you for doing this! ✨✨✨

How fabulous this podcast is. I’m coming slightly late to the ball, but I’m catching up and cannot wait for the big proposal!

I read the novel both in English and French (later watched the 1995 BBC miniseries and the movie), and listened to many audio rendering (?) but this performance is music to my ears. My only complain would be that the remaining « episodes » are not yet available but there again it is said that...Read full review »

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good podcast, must be in want of a wife.... is that right? As someone who has never read, watched or listened to this story, a podcast sure is a good way to get me in it. The team behind this are amazing. Just wait...Read full review »

This really is one of the best versions I have ever listened to. Well done to all of the cast for creating such a magical experience.
emrosemar via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 08/12/20
This is the best adaptation I have come across and a pleasure to listen to. The reading of the story is as fun to listen to as the ending credits. The different voices and intonation makes it engaging and relaxing. I love to listen to this in bed every night - and am waiting for new episodes to...Read full review »

The Ballarat National Theatre has ignited the awe and wonder of Jane Austen’s seminal work ‘Pride and Prejudice’. The professionalism and dedication that these Ballarat actors have put into this project is profoundly evident. Jane Austen would be so proud! You will be delighted with how...Read full review »

It’s lovely to sit and listen to an audiobook where it isn’t the same person speaking the whole way through, especially an Austen novel. Some wonderful voices in here too.
Francis22318 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 06/01/20
It’s somewhere between an audio book and a radio play! Actors play all the different characters with all the background noises in between the narrator telling the story.
