More Myself Than I Am

Talking Shadows

A vivid exploration of how three sheltered young women from a remote Yorkshire parsonage created some of the most raw, violent and passionate literary works of all time. Charlotte: the ambitious dreamer. Emily: the intense loner. Anne: the gentle, would-be social reformer. And their brother Branwell: the brilliant "lost" boy whose disappointments served only to highlight the extraordinary success of his sisters. 'Gripping and unforgettable' **** (BroadwayBaby.com). 'A cut above' **** (TheWeeReview.com).

    Larkhill

    The women of the Auxiliary Territorial Service were crucial to the domestic and international efforts of the British Army during World War II. Over 250,000 young girls signed to the ATS: many working out of Larkhill in Wiltshire. This new piece explores their stories using verbatim testimony and contemporaneous musical numbers. Talking Shadows has a passion for presenting forgotten, true stories which have been described as being 'Not a dry history lesson but a living memory' (1966: ***** CounterCultureUK.com); 'Intense, emotional, excellent' (OTMA: **** TheRealChrisparkle.com); 'Wonderful' (1612: **** The Mumble). Sell-out shows 2025.

    Taken

    In post-war England: shame, secrecy and societal pressure forced unmarried mothers to part with their children, through the institutionalised and systemic coercion that is still awaiting an official apology. Between the Adoption Acts of 1949 and 1976, thousands of babies were taken from their families in a scandal which continues to ripple through the lives of those affected. Talking Shadows has a passion for telling lost female stories in shows such as 1966 ***** (CounterCulture), 1612 **** (TheMumble.uk), OTMA **** (TheRealChrisparkle.com). Sell-out shows 2025.
