Waves

a work devised by Katie Mitchell and the Company from the text of Virginia Woolf's novel, The Waves

5 STARS Financial Times, The Times, Time Out

'An extraordinary show. Spellbinding, sophisticated and moving.' Sunday Times

'Theatre and video come together so seamlessly and complement each other so exquisitely it is as if Katie Mitchell, her actors and video artist Leo Warner have created an entirely new art form.' Guardian Online

A tale of friendship, loss, identity and love, Waves is an exploration of human consciousness, tracing a band of friends from childhood to old age and death. The fragmented and dreamlike narrative of Virginia Woolf's novel is exquisitely evoked using live film, sound and musicians.

A chance to see the original National Theatre cast in this unique and acclaimed production.
