Description

A historical audio drama limited series based on the life of Charlotte Cushman produced by Gather by the Ghost Light. In 1845, Charlotte Cushman is the most famous American actress in the world, well-known for playing men's roles in the plays of Shakespeare. Despite her international fame, she harbors a secret, hidden in plain sight: she loves women. Celebrated in her own country, she has brought her sister Susan to London to play Juliet to her Romeo. Old resentments between the sisters surface as Charlotte struggles to balance her exploding career, her tumultuous relationship with writer Matilda Hays, and her affair with another young woman, all while keeping her personal life hidden from her fans, her sister, and her bitter rival, Edwin Forrest. Written by Jillian Blevins. Starring Anna Demetriou, Charlotte McBurney, Paris S. Pringle, Kezia Burrows, Jonathan Cook, Devora Wilde, & Neil Hellegers. Directed and Sound Design by Jonathan Cook.
