History At Play, LLC (HAP, LLC), has garnered nationwide applause for their Immersive Living History Experiences, chronicling the lives of legendary women who changed society. In To Do More and Better Things, HAP, LLC presents Laura Rocklyn in a one-woman performance, recalling the life of authoress Charlotte Brontë. Rocklyn transports us to 1853: Charlotte has recently published Villette, her third, and most personal, novel. The remarkable writer reflects on her extraordinary family, unconventional education, and a life-changing experience in Brussels, which she recalls in her work on her most recent novel. Learn about the difficulties and unexpected opportunities that literary fame has caused. Charlotte shares the hardships faced by single women, who attempt to make a living, and even, possibly, a name for themselves, as well as how she and her remarkable sisters strove to rise above these barriers.
