Adam Strickson – Poetry Simon Warner – Film David Wilson – Music
This 3-way collaboration brings together literary, visual and musical responses to the Brontës and their landscape. Adam Strickson reads verse by the Brontës, Sylvia Plath, Ted Hughes and Charlotte Mew alongside his own poems. Simon Warner projects video and photographs shot recently on Haworth Moor, and delves into his archive of 35 years. David Wilson plays his own compositions that are directly inspired by visits toHaworth and the moors, and that also draw on research into music the Brontës played and enjoyed.
