Shropshire Star features the two-woman show
What the Brontës Did at the Fringe, which will be performed at All Saints Parish Church on Friday, June 20, at 7 p.m.
On Friday 20 June at 7pm, the world-famous Brontë sisters—Charlotte, Emily, and Anne—will be celebrated in a unique performance at All Saints Parish Church. The show, “What the Brontës Did at the Fringe”, is a lively two-woman production featuring award-winning singer/songwriter Pauline Vallance and performer Jacynth Hamill.
Combining original songs, a harp, humour, and what they call “a kicking bonnet,” the show explores what the Brontës might make of modern life:
What shows would they attend at the Edinburgh Fringe?
How would they handle today’s celebrity culture?
What would they make of city nightlife?
There’s even a reimagining of Patrick Brontë’s poetry through dance – a nod to the sisters’ father, who was once a curate at All Saints Church in Wellington.
The event is a fundraiser in support of the restoration of the church’s historic Grade II* listed pipe organ. Expect a warm, witty and original celebration of some of literature’s most iconic women – with a musical twist. (Andrew Beach)
