Luna Stage Presents VITA AND VIRGINIA, Now thru 10/28
Luna Stage presents the New Jersey Premiere of 'Vita and Virginia' by Eileen Atkins, adapted from correspondence between Virginia Woolf and Vita Sackville-West. Directed by Jane Mandel, with previews running tonight, Sept 27-Oct 4 and opening night set for Oct 5. The show will play through Oct 28, 2012.
Vita Sackville-West was a wealthy socialite and aspiring poet. Virginia Woolf was of more modest means, and widely considered to be a brilliant writer. Yet, these two women shared a long and complex relationship. Told mostly through letters that sparkle with wit and insight, Vita and Virginia sheds an intimate and provocative light on these two visionaries as they negotiate what it means to be a sexual woman in their respective worlds.
There will be talkbacks following performances on 9/30, 10/7 and 10/18. The regular run plays Thursdays at 7:30pm, Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00pm, Sundays at 3:00pm
Tickets for Previews/Thursdays: $25; Fridays/Saturdays/Sundays: $35.
PLACE: Luna Stage, 555 Valley Road, West Orange NJ. Call (973) 395-5551 or visit our website at www.lunastage.org for reservations and further information. Luna Stage is wheelchair accessible.
