Adapted by Ellen McLaughlin from Virginia Woolf’s novel Mrs. Dalloway, and directed by Rachel Dickstein with an original score by Gina Leishman, Septimus and Clarissa takes audiences on a timely and harrowing ride inside the minds of a shell-shocked World War I veteran and an upper-class housewife forced to face her deepest fears.
This visceral exploration of Woolf’s groundbreaking novel dives deep into the tensions of post-WWI London to expose the darkness that lurks beneath the fragile surface of peace.
