Pride and Prejudice is based on Jane Austen's novel set in early 19th-century England, focusing on the romantic tension between Elizabeth Bennet and the wealthy, aloof Mr. Darcy. The story explores themes of love, class, and societal expectations, primarily through the interactions between the headstrong and independent Elizabeth and the seemingly proud and haughty Darcy. Initially, Elizabeth misjudges Darcy, thinking him arrogant and dismissive, while Darcy believes Elizabeth to be beneath his social standing. However, as the narrative unfolds, both characters undergo personal growth, confronting their own flaws and misconceptions. Their evolving relationship ultimately leads to mutual understanding and love, challenging societal norms along the way.

Director’s Notes I’ve never had so much fun researching a show in my whole career! Reading the novel, watching the many movies of the story, learning about the time period and the “proper life skills” in the Jane Austen handbook, watching the BBC series over again . . .so many happy hours before school even started. Many of my students were excited at the prospect of presenting this play, so that made it all an exciting venture.

This being a play set in 1813, the students had to learn more than just their lines. Adjusting to the 19th-century language proved to be a challenge at first. The differences in the customs and mores of the time made the girls happy to live in the 21st century. Learning the dances, though sometimes tedious in the rehearsals, became quite fun after a while. As always, my talented and dedicated students accomplished everything asked of them and more! I love working with them all.

Something interesting to note – Mr. Darcy’s earnings are mentioned a few times in the play, but in 1813 pounds. Mr. Darcy’s 10,000 pounds a year translates to the 2024 American amount of over $1 million. Not 3 a bad living for the Darcys.

My thanks to so many who support our students and our program. Mrs. Laura Swenson and Dr. Tom Opfer for their constant support. Patty Kelleher, my technical director and assistant director, my right-hand woman learned much from her dad, Ken (our former technical advisor) and continues our tradition of excellence. She teaches the tech students everything they need to know, and the cast and crew love her. The Producers Committee and so many parents kept us all going with their help and, like all good moms, kept us fed with meals and mountains of snacks. My friends and family always support us unconditionally, especially my husband, Geoff, and my kids, PVI grads ’12 and ’15, who now teach in the diocese.

Thank you for coming out to see our beautiful show. I hope that you have a wonderful time in Austenland.

Kathy Silvia d’Alelio Director of Theatre Arts

Meet the Cast and Crew!

Elizabeth Anderson^* 2025 (Co-Head of Sound, Set Construction, Painting) Elizabeth is a senior and thrilled to be co-head of the sound crew with Kaylyn this year! She is excited to work on this production of Pride and Prejudice — hopefully, it will be even better than the 1995 TV series adaptation (which is better than the 2005 movie).

Pray for the sound system! :) Camilla Anghelone* 2026 (Kitty Bennet, Costumes) Camilla is a junior and is so excited to be on stage this year! She helped “uglify” the stepsisters’ and stepmother’s costumes for Cinderella, and enjoyed it so much that she decided to audition for the play! She is endlessly grateful for the help she received throughout this whole process and is especially thankful (her whole life, actually, thanks!) to Ronan McConville for introducing her to acting through One Acts, and to Aedan for showing up in a tutu that one time. She hopes you enjoy the show; it’s the VERY thing! #oliviaunverzagt #ronanmcconville Maryn Arseculeratne 2027 (Stage Crew, Set Construction) Maryn is a sophomore. Maryn doesn’t do much because theatre takes up too much time.

Isabella Aufiero 2026 (Props, Set Construction)

* Denotes member of the International Thespian Society ^ Denotes graduating senior

14

Keira Aufiero 2027 (Stage Crew, Costumes, Set Construction) Keira Aufiero is a sophomore. She is on costumes and on stage crew but also helps with set construction and painting. She joined PVI Theatre last year for The Crucible and was also working during Cinderella. She is really excited to be a part of PVI Theatre again this year.

James Baker 2028 (Stage Crew, Props) Nina Baker 2026 (U/S Georgiana Darcy, Ensemble, Hair & Makeup, Marketing) Nina Baker is a junior, and has been involved in PVI productions since she was a freshman. From hair and makeup crew to understudying to actual roles — Nina has done it all! When she's not on stage, she’s busy being an academic weapon, walking hamsters, or speed-walking away from clowns...Regardless, she is so thankful for the opportunity to be a part of this production of Pride and Prejudice, and hopes everyone enjoys the show! #lexysaid #oliviaunverzagt #gabbiburgos #prideandpredjuice #"thanks!" #baileycannon #ronanmcconville #maddiebradford #camillaanghelone Keira Barboza 2025 (Hair & Makeup) Keira is a senior and it’s been her second year being involved with the hair and makeup crew. Outside of school, Keira likes to hang out with her friends, watch Netflix, and play with her dog.

She hopes you enjoy the show!

Brookie Barker 2025 (Hair & Makeup) LIVE LAUGH LOVE LIA BOYLE #liaboyle #thcore #ronanmcconville Gabriela Bergstrom 2027 (Props, Set Construction) Gabriela Bergstrom is a sophomore who is a member of props crew. She is usually found during set builds up in the props loft organizing and sorting things with the rest of props crew. Gabriela is also a part of the school’s writing club for Crossroads and in the Fashion/Cosmetics Club. Hope you enjoy the show!

😁

Alexis Boland* 2025 (Head of Marketing, Stage Crew, Master Painter) With six of the seven shows in her career complete, Alexis Boland is a lot of things. Exhausted, for one. Very sick of long rehearsals and even longer set-build shifts. And annoyed at the companies who never respond to her requests for ads. But beyond all that, she is so grateful to have spent these four years alongside so many wonderful people, and wants to thank anyone and everyone who has changed her life along the way. And if she got to make a difference in one person's life in the many roles she has taken on in these four years, then, what more can you really ask for?

Bella Boshers 2026 (Hair & Makeup)

Maddie Bradford* 2026 (Elizabeth Bennet, Hair & Makeup, Programs, Set Construction) Maddie is a junior and this will be her 4th show at PVI. You might remember her as the number one Abigail apologist in The Crucible, Mercy Lewis, but this year she can be described as broke, not handsome enough to tempt anyone, and headstrong and foolish (oh that's not...no in the sense that). Maddie is so incredibly overjoyed to play Lizzie Bennet and cannot express how grateful and excited she is to perform. She wants to thank all of her friends and family for their continued support as well as Mrs. D, Patty Kelleher, and all the cast and crew for making this show possible. Remember to always maintain your distance from Mr. Collins and never ask about his patroness (that's how he traps you). She hopes you enjoy the show!! #parmisrahai #ewitismrcollins #ofwhatareyoutalking #ilyma Thomas Brophy 2026 (Lights) Dani Bruno* 2026 (Ensemble, Costumes, Marketing) Did Dani Bruno turn this bio in at the last second? Well yes, yes, she did. As the true master procrastinator once said, "[People] of lofty genius sometimes accomplish the most when they work the least." - Leonardo Da Vinci. #MaddieBradford4Ever Kaylyn Burakowski^* 2025 (Co-Head of Sound)

* Denotes member of the International Thespian Society ^ Denotes graduating senior

Gabbi Burgos* 2026 (Lady Catherine de Bourgh, U/S Mrs. Bennet, Marketing, Programs, Set Construction) “Of what are you talking??” Oh, of Gabbi Burgos (aka burpgoose/gabbitha). Well, she is a junior and this will be her 5th show here (I know crazy right), (Yeah, so crazy, but who could she possibly be in her fifth show) Well, that is where the suspense begins, but she will most ardently make you go bonkers. WAIT! Please don’t tell me you are from cheapside?? If you are, please leave, however if you’re from Mayfair, do come visit Rosings Park after the show. See you in a jiffy! #parmisrahai #mateosur #maddiebradford #lexysaid #nicoflores #ronanmcconville #oliviaunverzagt #camillaanghelone #ninabaker #maddyrenubutt #swalter #trinityjones #aedanmcconnell #anniehoward #ilyma Kaitlyn Byrdy 2028 (Lady Anne de Bourgh, Set Construction) Kaitlyn is truly excited to be a part of Pride and Prejudice and the awesome cast! She is honored to be in her first show with PVI Theatre. Kaitlyn has participated in numerous productions with PPT: Anastasia, The Wizard of Oz (Dorothy Understudy), Guys and Dolls, The Addams Family (Wednesday), Descendants (Mal), School of Rock, Godspell and Oliver! with PWLT. Kaitlyn would like to thank the cast, crew, production team, her parents, sister and Ms. Angela for the support! She hopes you enjoy the show!

Christian Castro 2028 (Ensemble) Camila Celis 2028 (Lights)

Ethan Chisholm 2025 (Violin) What happens when you mix brains and brawn with a man who looks so incredibly handsome in his concert black? That’s right.

You get Ethan Chisholm! Ethan is STOKED to continue performing in the pit orchestra after his work in last year’s production of Cinderella. He would like to thank his friends and family for their support. Enjoy the show!

Reagan Copeland 2028 (Ensemble) Reagan excitedly perfected her aristocratic British accent for her PVI Players debut as background dancer #6 and has her fingers crossed to be paired with a male dancer taller than herself. She likes French fries, Acting class, and being Marshall's little sister.

A big thank you to Mrs. D for making Saturday morning set builds extra sweet with her surprise donuts

❤️

Alexa Cruz 2027 (Hair & Makeup) Madison Cruz 2028 (Props) Madison is a freshman who is part of the props crew. She attended PVI’s production of Cinderella (which prompted her to join theatre this year) and is excited to be a part of Pride and Prejudice.

Adam Delacourt^ 2025 (Lights) The three-time MVLCM (Most Valuable Lights Crew Member) has returned for his fourth show! Known to some as the "LeBron of lights crew," Adam is known for his stellar performances behind the scenes. His minor onstage roles include Sam in Ten Ways to Survive the Zombie Apocalypse and Colten in Circus (shoutout to the peanut guy). Chances are, right now, he's in the booth, eating, and fully unaware of the present task. He would like to thank his friends, family, and totally awesome girlfriend for their support and hopes you enjoy the show. #LateBio #HaydenSpringer #JackDuren #AedanMcConnell Nico Flores 2026 (Charles Bingley) Nico is thrilled to be a part of his first production with the PVI Players! He is a junior and when he is not on stage, he plays Boys Volleyball, he is a co-president of the Christian Discipleship club, and he is a Black & Gold Ambassador. He has loved the experience of rehearsing and preparing for this show. He would like to thank his friends for introducing him to theatre, his parents for their endless support, and all the directors who have helped him throughout this process! Enjoy the show! #cameronherrera #mateosur #maddiebradford #gabbiburgos #francescaleiva #oliviaunverzagt #maddyrenuart #ronanmcconville #jameskees #rodrigojauregui #anniehoward #lexysaid

Emily Fountaine^ 2025 (Lights Crew) emily likes a lot of things. lights. lightbulbs. her busted car. her super awesome friends who do things like write her bios. she’s not a a huge fan of pride or prejudice, but the combination isn’t too bad. she also doesn’t like people who don’t enjoy the show, so keep that in mind.

Sophia Fromm 2028 (Programs, Lights) Sophia is a freshman. She loves cats, but she can’t get one ‘cause of her allergies :((. Back at her middle school, she helped in her theater program for three years. She’s been to three PVI plays so far and is looking forward to seeing another. Pretty much all of her friends from middle school attend PVI with her, so she’s happy to experience high school with them. She would never survive without her emotional support human, Emma (who’s on props). The cast and crew worked so hard to make this play the best ever! So she hopes you enjoy the show!

✨ ❤️

Victoria Delacourt 2027 (Assistant Stage Manager, Costumes) Victoria is a sophomore and enjoyed working on The Crucible and Cinderella last year. She is excited to be an assistant stage manager this year! She loved working on Pride and Prejudice and is excited for you to see the results of all the PVI Players' hard work. She would like to thank Olivia Lattanze and Audrey Grimm for teaching her how to be an ASM. Enjoy the show!

Logan Esposito^ 2025 (Stage Crew) Logan is a senior, and this is his third year on stage crew. He looks forward to working on his last two productions with his friends and continuing theatre in college.

Katie Faist 2026 (Marketing) William Fallon 2027 (Lights Crew) If anyone remembers William Fallon's bio from Cinderella, he said he was going to get an acting role for this play. Alas, that did not happen due to things such as life, school, and cross country.

But for now, William has switched to lights crew for his third play, and already is having a great time. If you hear a noise from above, it's just William walking on the catwalk. Enjoy the show! #NASCARisbetterthanF1 #band&theatre Elliott Feeney 2028 (Ensemble, Set Construction) Elliott is a freshman who likes to mountain bike, ski, hike, and casually pretend he's over his fear of heights...which is smart considering he wants to go into the Air Force. After his prestigious eighth-grade stint as Romeo, he's now enjoying the Simple Life in the ensemble of Pride and Prejudice.

Arabella Fulgenzi^ 2025 (Ensemble) Bella is a senior. She has participated in theatre all four years, but typically only during One Acts. She was in Freaky Friday during freshman year as a part of ensemble, but has not had another role in an official PVI show, until now. She has loved working with her friends in theatre and is looking forward to enjoying her last year of PVI Theatre.

McKenzie Gaskill 2027 (Sound) Jacob Gozzi^ 2025 (Mr. Gardiner) Erin Griffiths 2027 (Ensemble, Set Construction) Erin is a sophomore who is very delighted to be a part of her first PVI production! She has always wanted to be in a 19th century drama and she can't wait to dream that for just one night, she is a young lady at a grand ball, waiting to meet the man that will change her life. Besides her love of acting, Erin loves to sing, play piano, read classic books, write, and watch the Sound of Music.

She'd like to thank her mom and dad for all their support.

Audrey Grimm* 2026 (Assistant Stage Manager) We worked hard. I am tired. You better like the show or I will cry.

Thank you for coming.

Ava Grom^* 2025 (Lydia Bennet, Costumes) Ava is a senior and is super excited you’re here. Also, thanks for coming, it means a lot. She was told that she would be kicked out of the Bennet household if she didn't write this bio, so thank god she did. Phew, that could've been bad.

Mary Haefner 2028 (Ensemble, Set Construction) Mary is a freshman and is SUPER excited for her first play!

Besides numerous hours spent on the play, she is in Model UN, Asian Culture Club, and Fashion and Cosmetics Club. She was told to say what an ABSOLUTE PLEASURE AND JOY it was to work with these amazing people. She hopes you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the play!! * Denotes member of the International Thespian Society ^ Denotes graduating senior

Katherine Heflin 2027 (Caroline Bingley, Costumes, Hair & Makeup) Katherine is overjoyed to be involved in this beautiful production.

She is a sophomore and she has been in two of PVI’s mainstage productions, portraying Elizabeth in The Crucible and Joy in Cinderella. She has been involved with Pied Piper Theatre for several years as well, most recently in The Addams Family as Uncle Fester and Anastasia as Dowager Empress. She would like to thank her parents (aka her Ubers to set builds and rehearsals) and her friends who have come to support her. She would also like to thank Ms. d’Alelio, Ms. Kelleher, and everyone involved on the production team for PVI. Cameron Herrera 2027 (Fitzwilliam Darcy, Lights, Programs, Set Construction) The overconfident, witty, and charismatic sophomore Cameron Herrera returns to the stage as Mr. Darcy in PVI’s Pride and Prejudice. Scoring one line his freshman year, Herrera has made what historians consider to be the greatest comeback of all time after studying under the mentorship of the legendary Hayden Springer. Running on two hours of sleep, Baja Blast, actual gasoline, and heavy metal music, Herrera is a blazing display of glorious recklessness and pure insanity, whether he’s shredding an electric guitar or (allegedly) breaking the law.

Annie Howard^* 2025 (Jane Bennet, Costumes Mistress, Head of Costumes) Annie is a senior, and this is her fifth show with the PVI Players.

In the past four years, her roles have included a talking horse, a murder suspect who enjoyed calling people “old goats,” and an accuser of witchcraft who could not stop screaming and caused her to lose her voice for an entire week. Annie has also learned that painting sets is NOT her forte (sincere apologies to those who had to repaint what she has messed up), and how to quite literally chase people down in order to take their costume measurements. She is beyond grateful to the amazing people in the cast, the costumes crew, and her family for their endless support. She hopes you enjoy the show! #lexysaid #maddiebradford #oliviaunverzagt #gabbiburgos #nicoflores #ronanmcconville #sophiawalter #patriciagracekelleher Elizabeth Hubbard 2026 (Lights) Elizabeth Hubbard is a junior. This is her first year in theatre and her first year on the lights crew. She is so excited to work on this show of Pride and Prejudice.

Emma Jao 2028 (Props, Set Construction) Emma’s on props and stage crew. Both have been fun enough to wake her up at 8 am on Saturdays, lol. She hopes everyone enjoys the show :))

* Denotes member of the International Thespian Society ^ Denotes graduating senior

Rodrigo Jauregui 2026 (George Wickham) Rodrigo is a junior, and this is his third production in PVI Theatre. This is his first production outside of the spring musicals from past years, Nice Work If You Can Get It and Cinderella. Now, he plays the ever-charming, nonchalant, charismatic handsome-in-his-regimentals, role of Lieutenant George Wickham. Rodrigo is stoked to be in the show (and to look handsome in his regimentals). He wants to extend his thanks to his parents, brothers, and friends and his congratulations to the entire cast. Enjoy the show!

Kitana Jones 2026 (Props) Kitana has grown and is a junior. While her height may be lacking, her dedication to props crew sure isn't.

Madison Jones* 2026 (Head of Props) Madison Jones is a junior and has been involved in theatre for the whole duration of her high school career. She has been practically jumping off the walls with excitement working on this production. She would like to thank the props crew for being the best crew ever. Hi mom! <waves> Trinity Jones^* 2025 (Head of Lights) The one and only swagtastical Head of Lights is back and better than ever for her final rodeo. She is STOKED to be a part of this production, and she is absolutely ELECTRIFIED with excitement for this show. She would like to thank her friends and family for supporting her theatre journey. Lastly, she would like the audience to “get hype” for this epic tale. Thanks! #aedanmcconnellwrotemybio #help #ilyma * Denotes member of the International Thespian Society ^ Denotes graduating senior

Alexandra Jordan* 2026 (Mrs. Reynolds, U/S Jane Bennet, Ensemble Dancer) You know that old lady from The Crucible that had 11 children and was 26 times a grandma? Alexandra is a junior and thrilled for her fourth production at PVI! She’s graduated from old lady to servant, and would like to thank her directors and castmates (and Charlotte Porcelli for writing this bio for her).

Zoey Joyce 2028 (Lights) Zoey just started her first year at PVI this year, and she immediately tried to join theatre. She auditioned for this show, but did not make the cut. Maybe next time! Zoey really likes music, and is playing flute in the Concert Ensemble. It was super fun to work on this production, and she hopes you enjoy it!

Jahan Kabadi^* 2025 (Lights) Genevieve Kaminski 2027 (Mrs. Gardiner, U/S Lady Catherine de Bourgh) You might have caught her in The Crucible or Cinderella last year. Genevieve loves Jane Austen and is elated to be in PVI’s stage adaptation of the best book and 6-hour BBC series ever.

She plays Aunt Gardiner and, to juxtapose that motherly role, understudies the snooty Lady Catherine de Bourgh. Genevieve would like to thank her family and dog.

Julia Korowajczuk-Nader^ 2025 (Stage Crew)

* Denotes member of the International Thespian Society ^ Denotes graduating senior

Alex Krepinevich* 2026 (U/S Caroline Bingley, Ensemble, Set Construction) Meet Alex Krepinevich, a 16-year-old high school junior with vibrant red hair that is very hard to miss! Balancing homework and rehearsals, Alex takes on the roles of Caroline U/S and the ensemble in Pride and Prejudice. When not on stage, you can find her sleeping or hanging out with her cats!

Maggie Lacey 2028 (Georgiana Darcy) Maggie is a freshman who loves to dance, play piano, and read.

She is a part of the Writer's Block Club and the choir. She is so excited to be joining the PVI Players in Pride and Prejudice this year, and she is thankful to everyone who helped make it happen!

Emma Ladowicz* 2026 (Ensemble, U/S Mrs. Reynolds, U/S Mrs. Gardiner, Set Construction) Emma is a junior. When she's not at school or theatre, Emma spends her time drinking boba tea to fuel her caffeine addiction, writing her first novel, singing, and crafting dad jokes that even the most seasoned of jesting fathers would grimace at. Emma would like to thank all the important people in her life for their support, especially her friends, family, and caffeine. Maybe it's pride in her work, maybe it's a bit of prejudice as part of the cast, but she thinks that you all will enjoy the show!

Natalia Lama^ 2025 (Head of Hair & Makeup) Natalia is a senior and this is her 7th production working on the hair & makeup crew. She is the head this year, as well as the head of the Glamies team. In her free time, you'd most likely find her in Sephora buying more lip glosses than she needs, deeply regretting & sobbing over not buying tickets to Billie Eilish's HMHAS tour, or sleeping because senioritis has already kicked in.

She EXTREMELY hopes you enjoy this beautiful show!

Olivia Lattanze^* 2025 (Stage Manager) Olivia Lattanze is finally a senior, and has been a part of PVI Theatre since freshman year. After starting as a minor stage crew member, Olivia finally made it and is now the stage manager. The title sounds fancy, but Olivia pretty much lives in the theatre, moving sets, writing down blocking, and reading scripts. She is so grateful for the friendships, memories, and inside jokes she has made along the way. She is glad to call her last fall play a success (hopefully) and cannot wait for what the future holds for her!

Enjoy the show!

Isabel Lee 2027 (Sound) Vivian Lee 2027 (Props) Vivian is a sophomore who just joined theatre this year. She does not enjoy writing and will keep this bio brief. Vivian is so happy to join theatre this year as everyone in the crew has been so sweet and friendly to her. She also wishes to thank her family and friends who supports her in all she does (even if she acts stupid sometimes). Finally, Vivian wishes for the audience to enjoy the show that she has seen everyone work so hard for. <3 * Denotes member of the International Thespian Society ^ Denotes graduating senior

Francesca Leiva 2026 (Hair & Makeup, Programs) Francesca Leiva is a junior and is excited for her third show as a member of the hair and makeup crew. She was also a part of the cast of Cinderella and acted in the One Acts last May #IMissLiaBoyle. Outside of the PVI Players, Francesca enjoys making art and encourages people to come to the Art Show in May! #LiveLaughLoveMadisonBradford Momo Lepsch 2028 (Ensemble, Programs, Set Construction) Momo is a freshman and enthusiastic ensemble member who’s here to bring background characters to life in Pride and Prejudice.

Known for her impeccable ability to stand still and nod dramatically, she’s thrilled to add “18th-century bystander” to her acting resume.

Aedan McConnell^* 2025 (Mr. Bennet, Head of Programs, Marketing) The greatest perk of being the Head of Programs is the ability to make your bio a million words over the limit, because you’re the boss! This fall, the swaggy senior will be taking on the role of everyone’s favorite PVI science department chair, Mr. Bennett. Just kidding. He just thinks it’s funny that his character shares the AP Chemistry teacher’s name. Besides being a loving father of five, Aedan has taken on many interesting roles on the PVI stage in his four years in the theatre department. For the sake of time (and program space), he’s electing to not list the musical roles until the musical. You may have seen him in fall productions as a very sad and mentally unstable reverend, a very freaky murderer (he does NOT claim this energy), and a very short and stout nurse. He would like to thank God, his family, and his friends for supporting him, and he would like to thank Camilla Anghelone for appreciating his incredible rehearsal tutu. He is also endlessly grateful to the cast, crew, and directors for their tireless work in putting together this production, and he can’t wait for you all to see it. Aedan has just realized there is still half a page left, but he’s the Head of Programs, so not filling the page he’s been given seems like a waste. So, Aedan is going to talk about zebras. Who thought “zebra” was a good name for anything to ever exist?

Imagine being the scientist who discovered an entirely new and alluring species of animals, with hypnotizingly awesome black and white stripes. Imagine being the person who looks at this epic freak of nature and thinks to name it a “zebra.” Genuinely, why?

Anyways, he thinks his bio is almost sufficiently long enough, so he’ll bring this marathon of words to a close. He would like to thank you all for coming out to see the show! * Denotes member of the International Thespian Society ^ Denotes graduating senior

Ronan McConville^* 2025 (Mr. Collins, Programs, Marketing) Haters say his hair is fake and that he’s a talentless freak.

(They’re jealous obviously <3) #lala #camillaanghelone #gabbiburgos #lexysaid #maddiebradford #oliviaunversagt #brookiebarker #ilyma Daniella Merhi 2026 (Sound) Gabrielle Meyer 2028 (Stage Crew) Eli Michaels 2028 (Sound) Gavin Mirkes 2028 (Ensemble) Gav is a freshman and he really enjoyed watching the shows over the years, which made him decide he wanted to be an actor on stage and TV! He is also a member of the Freshmen Football team. It was a challenge to juggle football and theatre, but he’s ecstatic that he found a way to make it work!

Jakob Mirkes^ 2025 (Head of Backstage Sound, Set Construction) Jakob is a senior now (Wow, senior year already) and it has been an absolute honor to work on PVI Theatre. He began working for the theatre sophomore year when he accidentally stumbled upon the program. Since then, he has loved working on tech, and sound crew has been one of the best experiences at PVI. He's looking forward to finishing the year strong!

Eva O’Hanlon 2027 (Costumes) Eva is a sophomore. She has joined the costumes crew and is enjoying it so much. She is also in band and loves playing her electric guitars. Besides theatre, she is also trying to form her own rock band and is always listening to music. During this play, it has been so awesome for Eva to see all the hard work and behind the scenes aspects of the play, and she hopes everyone enjoys the show! <3 "I don't know where I'm going from here, but I promise it won't be boring." -David Bowie Grace Ortube 2028 (Props) Natalie Pearce^ 2025 (Hair & Makeup) Charlotte Porcelli* 2026 (Ensemble, U/S Kitty Bennet, Hair and Makeup, Marketing, Props) Charlotte is a junior, and this is her third year of doing theatre with the wonderful PVI Players. She loves all of the crews she’s in and the friends she’s made in them. Working on and being a part of this beautiful production has been so fun, and she can’t wait for you to see it!

W. Princeton Porterfield 2027 (Ensemble, Set Construction) A simple man with a simple plan.

Maddy Renuart 2026 (Mrs. Bennet, Programs) Maddy is so happy to have taken the swagtastical role of Mrs. Bennet. Maddy really resonates with this character because her dramatics are eerily similar to those of Mrs. Bennet’s. Maddy loves being typecasted in the funny roles and hopes to continue to be the comedic relief in future shows. Maddy is having trouble writing this bio and making it funny because funny comes naturally, and you just can't force it (Maddy is trying to force it.)

That being said, Maddy will end this bio (because it is definitely over 50 words) by saying it has been an absolute blessing to work with this amazing cast, crew, directors, and producers, and she thanks everyone for their hard work and dedication to this show. #lala Lexy Said* 2026 (Charlotte Lucas, Programs, Hair and Makeup, Marketing, Set Construction) Lexy (aka dys) is a junior this year, and this will be her 5th show with these beautiful people. She started off her freshman year as an old goat with @gabbiburgos #doppelganger, and has also played a chorus girl, a crazy lady accused of witchcraft, and a ballroom dancer. Now, she cannot wait to show you what an awesome spinster she is in P&P. She would like to thank Mrs. D, Patty, her parents, all of her friends in this production, and everyone watching. Enjoy! #patriciagracekelleher#ripparmisrahai#ripmateosur#ilyma

Outside of school, she loves to knit and crochet and is the president of Yarnville at PVI. Mia has a fabulous corgi named Lizzie. It has been an absolute joy to work on this beautiful production.

James Skees 2027 (Ensemble, U/S Charles Bingley, Set Construction) Ladies and gentlemen, for the next act, we present to you, the one, the only, the 6’1”, the handsome, the magnificent, and the better Skees kid… JAMES SKEES *you all clap* tonight, he will be performing as, drum roll please… Man #4. *even more applause*.

"Thank you, thank you. I am truly honored to be playing the role of Man #4. Which, may I add, is also my dream role. For you all tonight”. “Alright, thank you all for coming out tonight. And enjoy our show!!! Or else…”

Madeline Tellis 2027 (Lights) Madeline is a sophomore, and she's super excited to be working on this year's fall production of Pride and Prejudice. This is her second year on lights crew and her third show at PVI. She would like to thank her friends and family for their continued support, especially for her parents and their willingness to drive her to and from theatre until she gets her license. In her free time, she enjoys reading, practicing the clarinet, and beating her entire family at chess. She has had a great time in PVI Theatre and hopes you enjoy the show!

Lauren Thompson 2027 (Costumes) Lauren Thompson is a sophomore, and this is her first year in theatre. So far it is an absolute pleasure and joy for her to work for theatre. Outside of PVI Theatre, she makes knotted rosaries.

Rose Tumma 2027 (Hair & Makeup) Olivia Unverzagt* 2026 (Dance Ensemble, U/S Mary Bennet, CoHead of Costumes) Olivia is a junior, and she is excited to be a part of another PVI Players production! You may have seen her on stage last spring as Cinderella in Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella, and off stage, she has loved the opportunity to lead the costumes crew with her amazing co-head (#anniehoward). She is so grateful to her family, friends, and directors for supporting her. Enjoy the show! #camillaanghelone #ronanmcconville #parmisrahai #lexysaid #maddiebradford #gabbiburgos #ninabaker #nicoflores (and everyone else)

Gabriel Urbina^* 2025 (Stage Crew, Set Construction) Gabriel is a senior and has been in stage crew since sophomore year. He is very excited to help with the production of the play and musical this year. He is hoping no one from the audience can see him, and that he can actually stay hidden on stage.

Fingers crossed!!!!

Karina Velasco^ 2025 (Violin) Karina is a senior, and she is a member of the Tri-M Music Honor Society, the Honors String Ensemble, and the Loudoun Symphony Youth Orchestra’s (LSYO) Philharmonic Orchestra.

Sophia Walter^* 2025 (Stage Crew, Programs, Set Designer, Master Carpenter) It is a truth universally acknowledged, that any senior set designer swamped by college applications and an insane courseload, must be in want of a fall play where 99% of the story is walking in between different rich people's mansions. After all her countless hours of research (watching, rewatching, and rewatching the 2005 Pride and Prejudice film adaptation featuring Keira Knightley, NOT the 1995 one which is objectively worse), she hopes she has managed to fulfill Jane Austen's vision. She thanks PGK, Ms. D, her family, literally everyone who has helped with anything, and most of all, Matthew Macfayden. #PGK #ilyma #ripparmisrahai #trinityjones Chanelle Ward^* 2025 (Stage Crew, Set Construction) Go Stage Crew!!!

Victoria Wijas 2028 (Stage Crew) Roy Wulf* 2026 (U/S Fitzwilliam Darcy, Director of Music, The Serpent) Roy Wulf is a junior who will provide live music for this production as one third of The Derbyshire Consort. Roy will play piano and some other sort of instrument. (It’s a thing that makes sounds.) Roy will be in Pied Piper Theatre’s Les Misérables portraying French guys and has filmed scenes for Episode 6 of Ken Burn’s documentary The American Revolution (2025) and Sight & Sound's feature film A Great Awakening (2026).
