Reynolds wrote the adaption that will be on stage and is director of the show too. Reynolds got involved with the theater in 2010. She got her start auditioning and performing in productions. Reynolds has done various tasks, including set building. “I love Pride and Prejudice,” Reynolds said. She added that she starting researching scripts a few years ago but did not like a lot of them.

“So, I immediately knocked those ones away,” she said. After read over scripts, she started writing her own. Since copyright on the original has expired, Reynolds was able to write her own adaptation. Reynolds highlighted her cast for the show.
