Improvised Regency Comedy in the Style of Jane Austen
About the Show
Austentatious is the critically acclaimed improvised comedy sensation from Austentatious, whose performers create an entirely new Regency-style story live on stage at every performance.
Inspired by the novels of Jane Austen, each show begins with a single audience-suggested title. From there, the cast—dressed in period costume and accompanied by live music—improvises a complete, utterly original “lost” Austen novel, filled with romance, scandal, and social absurdity.
The show has enjoyed long-running success in the West End and on tour, earning widespread praise for its wit, intelligence, and astonishing improvisational skill.
What Audiences Can Expect
On 7 March 2026, Milton Keynes Theatre hosts a one-night-only performance of this much-loved improv hit. Because the story is created entirely in the moment, no two performances are ever the same.

-
Regency-era characters, courtships, and comic misunderstandings
-
Live musical accompaniment enhancing the period atmosphere
