Written and performed by Heather Alexander.
Directed by Dominique Gerrard.
Lock up your libraries if you like; but there is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind.
A woman must have money and a room of her own. Cambridge University, 1928. Virginia Woolf, the celebrated writer, is abruptly ordered off the grass and refused entry to the library. Her crime? Being a woman.
Following this, Woolf interrogates the crushing injustice of women living in1920's Britain. She slices through notions of gender disparity with an incisive mix of integrity and visceral charm as she forms her ideas about Shakespeare's Sister, Jane Austen, Charlotte Bronte and Aphra Behn among others.
Heather Alexander brings Virginia Woolf's iconic text to the stage. In this witty, poignant and provocative adaptation, Alexander reminds us that the issues at the heart of A Room of One's Own remain as relevant today as they were a hundred years ago.
