November 2 – 4
Orlando
Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award nominee Sarah Ruhl adapted Virginia Woolf’s witty novel Orlando into a stylish play that examines the nature of identity. Orlando, our gender-changing protagonist, travels through five centuries, aging only 36 years, all the while observing changes in sexual stereotypes, laws, morals, and fashion. Seen as a love letter from Woolf to Lady Sackville-West, this provocative play questions the nature of love as it parodies literary styles through the ages.
