Adapted by Em Christie from the novel by Virginia Woolf
Staged Reading directed by Matthew Dryburgh
Performance: June 27th, 2024
Orlando wanders out of the mists of Virginia Woolf’s mind as a teenage heartthrob in the court of Elizabeth I. Never aging past thirty, Orlando lives many generations as a man on a search for meaning before magically becoming a woman, thus subjected to quite different standards. Virginia’s love for Orlando radiates as the two intertwine across centuries, through Orlando’s transitions, and into the present moment, embracing queerness in all its beauty, connecting this historical meditation on gender and sexuality to modern audiences. Adapted by Em Christie from the novel by Virginia Woolf.
