The Parlour Game : Pride & Prejudice

Not even your high school English teacher knew Jane Austen could be this uproariously clever. A laugh-out-loud mash-up party game for everyone, whether you loved the novel, or barely skimmed it. Dealt from a deck of 400 response cards, complete modern musings such as, “The secret to a happy marriage is….” with phrases pulled directly from Pride & Prejudice. Put a new spin on a literary classic by turning this novel of manners into a comedy of errors. Ideally suited to 4 players or more, ages 14 and up. For fans of Jane Austen and classic literature, and for fans of anything but. It’s like reading the book . . . but funner. Sample prompt/response scenarios: Omg, last night I dreamt I was: a man of more fashion than fortune. nearly a hundred thousand pounds. pleasing women. the only handsome girl in the room. The secret to a happy marriage is: a bottle of wine every day. a pack of foxhounds. a thorough knowledge of music, singing, drawing, dancing, and the modern languages. silent indignation.
