Mrs Dalloway

The immersive new stage version of Woolf’s classic novel has been co-created by award-winning director Jen Heyes and Olivier Award-winning writer and performer Kit Green who also embodies the lead role and a host of other unforgettable characters in this bold, contemporary, reimagining. 

Fusing theatre, live music and film into a dazzling theatrical feast, this immersive adaptation brings Woolf's radical novel roaring into the now! Over the course of one extraordinary day, lives intertwine. Memory, identity and loss collide and at the centre stands Clarissa Dalloway; vivacious, complex, unforgettable.

Funny and moving, Mrs Dalloway is a vibrant celebration of life, love, survival and the moments that make us who we are.
