Loft Ensemble in North Hollywood is set to present the fourth production of its ninth anniversary season, “Branwell (and the other Brontës): An Autobiography Edited by Charlotte Brontë,” by Stephen Kaplan, running March 11-26.
About
The Brontës (Charlotte, Branwell, Emily, and Anne) created such masterpieces as “Wuthering Heights” and “Jane Eyre.” However, it’s in their own private fantasy worlds, with clear rules, invented when they were children, that they find their most inspired outlets. As Branwell lays on his deathbed, they escape often and with urgency and change the rules to avoid the inevitable and try to keep both him and these cherished worlds alive. The play explores the pain and necessity of creation in the face of destruction and loss, and how misogyny contributes to the downfall of a family.

“Branwell (and the other Brontës): An Autobiography Edited by Charlotte Brontë” is directed by Sarah Nilsen, and the cast will feature (in alphabetical order) Marc Leclerc, Maia Luer, Naomi Phyl, Calvin Picou, Natasha Renae Potts, and Sarah Sommers.
