Stute Theatre’s latest touring production brings you the best-known, most-loved family of writers in English literature – the brilliant and passionate Brontë sisters.

But… how to tell their story?
A historical adaptation complete with bonnets, bustles and books?
A creative revolution on the isolated moors?
Or a fast-paced flurry of spoken words and ideas?

With live looped spoken word, soaring vocal harmonies and an unexpected twist; this modern adaptation shines a new light on the artistry and resilience of three remarkable Yorkshire women.

 The Brontes. Reimagined, retold and reclaimed.

Created by award-winning thatre company Stute Theatre and written by Sophia Hatfield and Lisa Cagnacci, this is the Bronte story, but not as you know it.
