About A Room of One's Own

The Old Town Hall’s resident company, the award-winning Dyad Productions, (Lady Susan, That Knave, Raleigh, A Christmas Carol, Christmas Gothic, I, Elizabeth, Austen’s Women, Female Gothic), 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.
