National Theatre | Underdog: The Other Other Brontë | Official Trailer | National Theatre @NationalTheatre | Uploaded May 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
Reader, I think you know who is most quotable.

Charlotte Brontë has a confession about how one sister became an idol, and the other became known as the third sister. You know the one. No, not that one. The other, other one… Anne.

This is not a story about well-behaved women.

This is a story about the power of words. It’s about sisters and sisterhood, love and jealousy, support and competition.

Directed by Northern Stage Artistic Director Natalie Ibu (The White Card), Sarah Gordon’s (The Edit) new play is an irreverent retelling of the life and legend of the Brontë sisters, and the story of the sibling power dynamics that shaped their uneven rise to fame.

Underdog: The Other Other Brontë is playing in the Dorfman Theatre until 25 May.
