We Are Three Sisters

Richmond Shakespeare Society (RSS) – one of the Borough’s longest-standing theatre companies – is staging We Are Three Sisters by Blake Morrison.

Two hundred years ago, a writer was born. The family would grow to give us three of the greatest writers this country has known: Charlotte, Emily and Anne Bronte. Their lives unfolded, for the most part, in the village of Haworth, in obscurity, but when their novels and poetry were published they caused a sensation in London. Charlotte longed for London. Anne longed for romantic love. And Emily remained deeply attached to the Yorkshire countryside.

Blake Morrison presents a view of life in the provinces full of humour and drama, family life with its affections and irritations, and the earthy, everyday life of a very remarkable family.
