Hello, Thespian Friends! Here at Waunakee's Groundlings Theater we're busy rehearsing our Pride and Prejudice production coming up 7/17-7/19 and 7/24-7/26, and we can't wait to see you at our shows!

As you probably know, we operate on a shoestring budget, and this show requires lots of people and tons of quick-change costumes, so we're asking for you to help us out by ordering & eating pizza tomorrow, Thursday, June 25th.

Papa Murphy will donate 20% of their 6/25 online sales that reference our promo code of GIVE20 to Groundlings Theater.
Thank you for your support.

Meet Jonathon Klingenberg who plays Mr. Darcy in Groundlings' Pride and Prejudice (7/17-7/19, 7/24-7/26).

Here's all about Jon from Jon!

❓Where might we have seen you on the stage recently?
🅰️ I was last seen on stage as Will Shakespeare in Shakespeare in Love at Stoughton Village Players.

❓Favorite character in P&P and why?
🅰️ Oh, Mrs. Bennet hands down. Or perhaps more specifically, Mrs. Bennet’s poor nerves. They are a veritable tour de force of comic impropriety.

❓Pride and Prejudice Book or Movie?
🅰️ As of late, the 1995 mini-series adaptation has been the preference. Why? Because Colin Firth. That’s why.

❓Tea or Coffee?
🅰️ Coffee in the morning, tea in the afternoon. (Rum punch in the evening.)

❓Favorite way to spend a Sunday afternoon?
🅰️ Reluctantly agreeing to attend a high society ball with my best friend and his sister, but only if I can pout and complain about being there the whole time.

Trust us when we say, you're not going to want to miss Jonathon's performance as Mr. Darcy! Photo credit: Studio E Photography

Meet Bridget Rohan Kelly who plays Jane Bennet and Miss De Bourgh in Groundlings' Pride and Prejudice (7/17-7/19, 7/24-7/26).

Here's all about Bridget from Bridget!

❓Where might we have seen you on the stage recently?
🅰️ I am returning after a long hiatus from acting while I worked privately with the Shakespeare Prison Project of Racine Correctional Institution.

❓Favorite character in P&P and why?
🅰️ Always had a soft spot for sweet Bingley. God loves an Optimist.

❓Pride and Prejudice Book or Movie?
🅰️ Don't crucify me for saying that the 2005 is my Pride & Prejudice. The book is fantastic and I'm a true Janeite but the score of that movie got me through a lot of hard times. It's the ultimate comfort watch.

❓Tea or Coffee?
🅰️ Tea, Earl Grey, Hot.

❓Favorite way to spend a Sunday afternoon?
🅰️ Believe it or not, I spar verbally with the best of them.

Trust us when we say, you're not going to want to miss Bridget's performance!

Here's all about Jackson from Jackson!

❓Where might we have seen you on the stage recently?
🅰️ I was most recently seen as Mac in Madison Theatre Guild's production of The Butter and Egg Man.

❓Favorite character in P&P and why?
🅰️ It has to be Collins. He’s just so awkward!

❓Pride and Prejudice Book or Movie?
🅰️ Movie for sure! The hand clench!

❓Tea or Coffee?
🅰️ COFFEEEEEE!

❓Favorite way to spend a Sunday afternoon?
🅰️ Verbal sparring for sure! What else would one do?

Trust us when we say, you're not going to want to miss Jackson's THREE roles: Mr. Collins/Wickham/Miss Bingley.
