BRONTË
By Polly Teale
How is it possible that three Victorian spinsters, living in isolation on the Yorkshire moors, could have written some of the most powerful and passionate fiction of all time?
This extraordinary new play by Polly Teale evokes the real and imagined worlds of the Brontës, as the fictional characters come to haunt their creators. Brontë was premiered by Shared Experience in a production directed by the author.

The Malvern Gazette has some additional details:
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.
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.
Bronte will tour Worcestershire from February 15-26 with performances in Worcester, Bromyard, Ledbury and Kidderminster. The first performance is at Worcester Arts Workshop on Friday, February 15, at 7.30pm. (Sue Vickers)
