OH MY WOW!!!!(insert heart eyes here). Charlotte Bronte and her time in Belgium has always fascinated me, as well as Elizabeth Gaskell's fabulous biography of same. Jennifer O'Grady has crafted a beautiful love letter(no pun intended) to these two great women--one a writer, the other her biographer--and asks a question we should all be asking: is the "bald truth" always a good thing? I fell fast and hard for Heger just as Charlotte did and my heart broke for both of them. Stunning, meaty roles for women make this play an absolute winner! ”
