Underdog: The Other Other Brontë
The Coach House Theatre
Underdog: The Other Otther Brontë, which ran to much acclaim at the National Theatre in 2024, is about the Brontë sisters, Charlotte, Emily, and Anne, three novelists whose uneven fame has survived the test of time.
Told in a contemporary, “tongue in cheek” way, this new play dives into the difficulties of women in being taken seriously as writers in the early 19th century. Society had a very rigid view of the roles of women, and being novelists was not within that realm.
It is a very intimate look at three remarkable women living in a time that made their otherness stand out uncomfortably. Underdog is a fascinating examination of the three Brontë sisters and their short lives, their struggles and successes, and Charlotte’s strong will to succeed above all else.
This is not a story about well-behaved women but about the power of words. It’s about sisters and sisterhood, love and jealousy, support and competition.
Underdog: The Other Other Brontë is a gorgeous new play that’s a delight for any fan of classic literature – Live On Stage
Ebullient and joyously invigorating – iPaper

How do you convince people you’re sane if even you’re not sure?
In a remote house on the Scottish coast two parents fight over the future of their daughter – and one of them is prepared to fight very dirty indeed.
Andrew Whittle’s dramatic new version of Strindberg’s rarely performed play challenges us to wonder how we would react if someone set out to convince us that our grip on reality was, at best, tenuous.
