The Art of Sisters

The Art of Sisters: Tales & Letters by the Brontës

Adapted by Miriam Canfield

 

Adapted diary entries, poems, & letters as well as excerpts from their novels, The Arts of Sisters unfolds the esteemed lives of the Brontë sisters

The performance’s intimate setting, a Beaux-Arts townhouse owned by the American Irish Historical Society, brought home an aspect of the Brontës often overlooked but useful to understanding them: the Irish thing.
