Enjoy ABT's Pop-Up Book Club featuring a captivating discussion around ABT's newest production WOOLF WORKS choreographed by Wayne McGregor.
This session was moderated by literary scholar Iseult Gillespie and featured a panel of distinguished guests, including WOOLF WORKS Dramaturg Uzma Hameed and ABT Principal Dancers Calvin Royal III, Devon Teuscher, and James Whiteside.
With music by Max Richter, this award-winning masterpiece re-creates the emotions, themes, and fluid style of three of Virginia Woolf's novels: Mrs. Dalloway, Orlando, and The Waves. Enmeshed with elements from Woolf’s letters, essays, and diaries, WOOLF WORKS expresses the heart of an artistic life driven to discover a freer, uniquely modern realism. It brings to life Woolf’s world of “granite and rainbow,” where human beings are at once both physical body and uncontained essence.
