Chorley Theatre presents Underdog: The Other Other Brontë, a fiercely funny and revealing retelling of the lives and legacies of the Brontë sisters – with Anne finally taking centre stage.
Written by Sarah Gordon and directed by Amber Walsh, this acclaimed play explodes the myth of the well-behaved literary sisters. Instead, it explores the power of words, the complexities of sisterhood, and the sibling rivalry that shaped their uneven path to fame. Charlotte has a confession to make – and it’s all about the other, other one.
★★★★ “A revelation.” – The i
★★★★ “A funny, bubbling, bolshie play about sisterhood, feminism, creativity and fame.” – Financial Times
“This blistering myth-buster hits the wuthering heights.” – London Theatre
Underdog comes to the Main Stage at Chorley Theatre on Monday 23rd February 2026 at 7.30pm.
Tickets are £10 and are available to book now.
Venue: Chorley Theatre, Dole Lane, Chorley, Lancashire, PR7 2RL.
