About

Charlotte Brontë has a confession about how one sister became an idol, and the other became known as the third sister. You know the one. No, not that one. The other, other one… Anne.

York Settlement Community Players present Sarah Gordon’s new and exciting play, which premiered at The National Theatre in 2024. Underdog is an irreverent retelling of the life and legend of the Brontë sisters like you’ve never seen them before!

This is not a story about well-behaved women. This is a story about the power of words. It’s about sisters and sisterhood, love and jealousy, support and competition.

An Amateur production presented by special arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd.
