Moreover, Hamilton is an engaging writer and is quite literary. Mac compares his family situation with that of Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre, the plain governess who married Mr. Rochester without knowing of his incapacitated first wife - the mad woman in the attic, as feminist scholars Sandra Gilbert and Susan Gubar named her in their groundbreaking book of the same name. (Suzanne Sanders)Also, the Ledbury Reporter summarises Polly Teale's Brontë, seeing as the company Perfect Circle will soon be touring the area: from February 15-26 with performances in Worcester, Bromyard, Ledbury and Kidderminster.
The tragic and talented Bronte sisters are the subject of an imaginative play being performed next month by Perfect Circle, the Malvern-based theatre group.'Isolated and inexperienced lives' is a tad too 'legendary' but we'll overlook it. Sadly BrontëBlog is only acquainted with the play on paper but it should make for a great evening at the theatre.
Bronte, by Polly Teale, looks at the lives of the three sisters, Victorian spinsters living in Haworth near the Yorkshire moors, who wrote some of the most memorable and passionate fiction of all time.
This unusual play evokes the real and imagined world of the Brontes in the Haworth parsonage and in it their famous fictional characters come to haunt them. It examines how the sisters with their isolated and inexperienced lives could have written such passionate and emotionally charged novels.
Bronte is the second production by Perfect Circle, a drama group formed a year ago to produce modern and contemporary theatre and workshops. (Sue Vickers)
