HollywoodChicago.com theater review: ‘Brontë’ a masterful resurrection

Brontë at the Victory Gardens Greenhouse Theater in ChicagoHollywoodChicago.com has just published its review of the Chicago production of “Brontë,” which just opened at the Victory Gardens Greenhouse Theater. From the review:

Three of the planet’s most examined scribes of all time – a trio of Victorian spinsters, in fact, who are credited with some of the most passionate literature ever written – are resurrected in the meticulous Chicago production of “Brontë” from illustrious playwright Polly Teale.

Teale explores the simply celibate life in which storied sisters Charlotte, Emily and Anne mostly only have themselves, their pens and their unbridled imaginations. Was it their chastity that unleashed so much repressed titillation or was such eroticism merely a fiery choice for absorbing prose?
