I will be attending and reviewing “Bronte” on March 24 at the Victory Gardens Theater Greenhouse. Click here for more information! Here is a description about the Chicago play:

This inventive drama, originally developed by the U.K.’s acclaimed Shared Experience Theatre Company, examines the lives of three of the most studied and discussed writers of all time. Spurred by their brother’s tumultuous personal life, Charlotte, Emily and Anne Brontë write from their remote home on the Yorkshire moors. The real and the imagined collide as the characters the sisters have created come to life. Polly Teale’s Bronte explores the question of how a trio of Victorian spinsters could have produced some of the most passionate literature ever written.
