"If you haven't seen Dyad Productions’ work before, you simply must"
The award-winning Dyad Productions (Lady Susan, That Knave, Raleigh, Christmas Gothic, I, Elizabeth, Female Gothic, A Christmas Carol and Austen’s Women) return with a twenty-first century take on Virginia Woolf’s blisteringly brilliant pre-TED talk.
Take a wry, amusing, and incisive trip through the history of literature, feminism, and gender. Meet Charlotte Brontë, Jane Austen, Aphra Behn, and Shakespeare’s sister – Judith! Introducing a different way to look at our creativity, it even comments on what life will be like in the 2020s! Come and be amused, challenged and changed.
Rebecca Vaughan performs Woolf’s 1928 exploration of the impact of poverty and sexual inequality on intellectual freedom and creativity. You haven't seen Dyad Productions’ work before, you simply must"
About This Show
Rebecca Vaughan’s adaptation of Virginia Woolf’s 1928 lectures is a brilliant production. Her script and performance are extraordinary- a sixty-five -minute monologue which keeps the audience enthralled to the very last moment is no slight achievement. Her words. costume, gestures, in fact everything takes us back to 1928. Then she transports the audience to 2028 with a vision of what creative women’s lives a century hence might be like.
The production is very timely in an era where funding for all types of creative pursuits is rapidly diminishing. The opportunities for all practitioners are disappearing but women are particularly affected because, even almost a century after Woolf’s original essays, Vaughan shows us how poverty and gender inequality, still stifle women’s creativity.
