Sarah Ruhl, playwright
Based on the novel by Virginia Woolf

Kim McKean, director

The young Elizabethan courtier Orlando, frustrated with a dull life at court, wanders the world in search of a muse. However, when he unexpectedly awakens as a woman at the turn of the 18th century, Orlando must reevaluate who she is in relation to the world’s changing understanding of gender. Called the “longest and most charming love letter in history,” Virginia Woolf’s magical novel, dedicated to her lover Vita Sackville-West and poetically adapted by Sarah Ruhl for the stage, embarks on a wildly theatrical and imaginative journey of self-discovery through 400 years of history.
