Charlotte Brontë: Senseless Trash

Join our Four Nations recipient, Fran Bundey for a phonic field trip over the Yorkshire Moors

Earlier this year, we announced that Fran Bundey was selected as the recipient of the Four Nations Outdoor Arts Bursary 2025. This award has enabled Fran to develop her new walkabout performance, Charlotte Brontë: Senseless Trash.

Charlotte Brontë: Senseless Trash.

Join Charlotte Brontë on a phonic field trip over the Yorkshire Moors and listen in to the sounds that shaped the Brontë sisters’ lives (Charlotte, Emily and the other one, Anne?)

The howling winds at Top Withens, the tranquil trickling of nearby waterfalls and the angelic tones of, Beyoncé… will accompany you on your journey. Senseless Trash from beginning to end – don’t say we didn’t warn you. Oh, and keep your wits about you, for there are beasts on those moors…

N.B. Charlotte Brontë: Senseless Trash is a 30-minute show suitable for audiences aged 14+. Places are limited, and attendees must be present for the duration of the show.

Where to catch the shows

Through the Four Nations Outdoor Arts Bursary, Fran will be touring the show to festivals in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales throughout the summer of 2025.
