Emma Corrin and the cast of ”Orlando” celebrate opening in the West End

Woolf’s text, which follows a young aristocrat whose life spans centuries, genders and countries, is re-imagined in Bartlett’s version, which WhatsOnStage’s Sarah Crompton calls “very meta and clever”. Crompton also praised Corrin’s central turn, calling it “a fantastic performance, full of gentle detail.”

Joining Corrin in the show are Deborah Findlay (Mrs Grimsditch), Jessica Alade (Virginia, Drunken Tory), Debra Baker (Virginia, Favilla, The Captain), Akuc Bol (Virginia, Euphrosyne, Prue), Lucy Briers (Virginia, Queen Elizabeth, Officer), Richard Cant (Virginia, Harriet, Kitty), Melissa Lowe (Virginia, Drunken Tory), Jodie McNee (Virginia, Marmaduke), Oliver Wickham (Virginia, Clorinda), and Millicent Wong (Virginia, Sasha, Nell).
