Orlando

About this event

Virginia Woolf's classic novel Orlando tells the story of a poet adrift in time; he starts out his life as a nobleman in Queen Elizabeth I's court, and her story concludes as a thirty-six year-old woman in the same time. Jules Scheele's graphic novel adaptation of this important queer work tells the complete story of Orlando's journey through history that examines the shifting & changing ideas of gender & sexuality, and plumbs the depths of the human heart. Taking us through love affairs, betrayals and exiles, struggles against conformity and poetry through the ages, Orlando is a fantastical adventure filled with satirical wit. A powerful and essential graphic novel adaptation of a vital British classic.
