Pippen Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Jane Austen fans will appreciate this recreation of a Regency ball at Chawton House. Great attention is given to detail by bringing in experts in areas such as period food, lighting, clothing, high society, dance, music, and even silverware. Very interesting, and sheds light on many aspects of the balls in P&P. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1yWRbyRX7Y Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pippen Posted May 18, 2013 Author Share Posted May 18, 2013 I believe it is new, and celebrating the 200th anniversary of the first P&P publication. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01sf0q6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wendi Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Can't wait to watch it! I love Jane Austen. I was in a production of "Emma" a couple of years ago, and loved learning the English country dancing for the ball scene. There is a historical group in town that does a Pride and Prejudice Ball every year, but I haven't been able to talk dh into going; this year I will go with some other ladies.
