Dally Away, Dalloway

Virginia Woolf's classic novel, Mrs. Dalloway has been reworked into a hit musical and will have its world premiere at the Cincinnati Shakespeare Company this spring. Lindsey Augusta Mercer has written the book, music, and lyrics for the show, and it will be directed by CSC's Sara Clark. Mercer has delved deep into the queer experiences of the characters in the play, exploring them further and taking a microscope to their relationships and romances. The perfect way to close out the CSC's 2024-2025 season!
