Taproot Theatre's production of MISS BENNET: CHRISTMAS AT PEMBERLEY offers a holiday diversion of wit, charm, and heart. Mary Bennet, the middle sister, steps from the shadows to take command of her own story. With a gathering of family and a visit from a distant cousin, the recipe is ripe for misunderstandings between people who manage to talk so much and say so little. Taproot Theatre has provided a show that should be on everyone's holiday wish list.

The for/word company will present a limited engagement run of Jennifer Schlueter's Patience Worth on May 19-20 at 8 p.m. in the Barnett Theatre, 1813 N High St., Columbus, OH 43210.
