Spanning three centuries and two genders, this magical adventure follows Orlando on a quest for love and identity. From Elizabethan courts to the modern age, one soul remains eternally young.
Spanning three centuries of history, Sarah Ruhl’s vibrant adaptation of Virginia Woolf’s masterpiece tells the story of Orlando, a dashing young nobleman who begins his journey in the Elizabethan court. After falling into a mysterious, days-long slumber, Orlando awakens to find himself transformed into a woman. As the ages shift from the Great Frost to the Victorian era and into the modern day, Orlando remains eternally young, navigating the complexities of gender, desire, and the artistic soul. It is a wild, heart-filled odyssey that asks what it really means to be yourself when the world keeps changing around you.
