Nick Steen and Laura Welsh Berg star in ISF's production of "Pride and Prejudice."

In a summer theatrical season that has already seen record-setting box office success, the Idaho Shakespeare Festival is now mounting a new production of "Pride and Prejudice." It's a literary classic and many still consider it a perfect novel ... almost sacred to many Jane Austen fans.

Stepping into the iconic roles of Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy are Laura Welsh Berg and Nick Steen. They visit with Weekend Edition host George Prentice.
