This November, Dangerous To Know
brings The Dissolution of Percy, the story of the final few years in
the life of Branwell Brontë, to the stage in Greater Manchester and
West Yorkshire. This summer, Caroline Lamb – Emily Brontë in the
ambitious new work – will travel on foot across over 130 miles of
Yorkshire moorland, Lakeland fells and Northern cityscapes to deliver
performed readings of poetry and prose by the most famous family in the
history of English Literature, along with new work inspired by their lives
and pieces lovingly donated by kind friends, colleagues and members of
the audience!
On 23rd June, Caroline will visit Halifax,
once a favourite social haunt of Branwell's because of it's fascinating
industry and thriving arts scene. To follow the journey or donate a
piece of work to be read, take a look at the company’s blog or
follow us on Twitter: @DTKManc (#nocowardsoulismine)
