Every once in a while, a renegade artist collective called Band of Toughs takes over with some super-cool immersive storytelling experience.

The show focuses less on the historical realities of the Brontёs (nobody needs to do homework and read all of the Brontё books before seeing the show) and more on their spirit.

We’re having a blast creating some new material and adapting the show to altona grange hall…
It’s as close to Haworth (where the Brontë’s grew up) we are going to find in CO. In this renewed, original production, we follow the tenacious and gifted Brontë siblings as they love, lose, and conceive some of the most famous literature of the 19th century! This 120-minute performance takes place in a handful of locations indoors and involves short walks between locations, including stairs. Seating will be provided.
