- Опубликовано: 20 окт 2024
- Game Of Thrones and Upstart Crow star Gemma Whelan plays Charlotte in Sarah Gordon's comedy that imagines the three Bronte sisters as highly competitive. Paul Seven Lewis reviews this liberty-taking, laughter-inducing look at the lives of the literary lionesses. Rhiannon Clements plays Anne and Adele James is Emily, supported by Nick Blakeley, Adam Donaldson, Kwaku Mills, Julian Moore-Cook and James Phoon. The director is Natalie Ibu and the set and costumes are designed by Grace Smart.
Production photos in this review are by Isha Shah.
Paul was given a review ticket by the theatre
Underdog can be seen at the National Theatre's Dorfman studio until 25 May 2024 and then at Northern Stage in Newcastle Upon Tyne (7 to 22 June).

Love this video! Thank you so much 🫶🏻
Thank you
At last, an intelligent, incisive and knowledgeable theatre critic. Just seen Underdog at Northern Stage. Please review more and more shows,,,,,
Thank you. I’ll do my best.
Do you know if this production was filmed for NT Live? Will the production be streaming on NT at home?
I think all NT productions are filmed these days. I doubt it will be shown in cinemas but it’s bound to turn up on NTAtHome.
I’ve just heard Underdog will be streaming on NTAtHome from 9 August.
Thank you for the info. That's great. I haven't been to any of the National Theatre stages because I'm always wary that the production might just be filmed and broadcast at a later date or available to stream at a later date and living in Edinburgh and working odd hours in retail there is only so much I can see and afford. @@TheatreReviewsWithPaulSeven
