A Room of One's Own at Middlesbrough Theatre

Published August 31, 2023 By

AWARD-WINNERS RETURN TO MIDDLESBROUGH THEATRE

 Award-winning creators Dyad Productions make a welcome return to Middlesbrough this September with a brand-new show.

 After a sell-out performance of Christmas Gothic in the Town Hall Crypt last year, creator and performer Rebecca Vaughan brings the latest production - A Room of One’s Own - to Middlesbrough Theatre.

 A 21st Century take on Virginia Woolf’s celebrated pre-TED talk, the show will take audiences on a wry, amusing and incisive trip through the history of literature, feminism, and gender.

 Inspired by the 1928 novel, it explores the impact of poverty and sexual inequality on intellectual freedom and creativity.

 Characters along the way include notable female icons such as Charlotte Brontë, Jane Austen, Aphra Behn and Shakespeare’s sister Judith. Audiences are encouraged to come along and be amused, challenged and changed.

 Rebecca Vaughan (Dalloway, Orlando, I, Elizabeth, Austen’s Women, Jane Eyre: An Autobiography) of Dyad Productions creates, produces and tours classic theatre with an innovative and contemporary emphasis.

A regular fixture at the Edinburgh Fringe, their work has been a critical, 5-star, sell-out success since 2009.

 Other Dyad Productions - Austen’s Women, I, Elizabeth, Christmas Gothic and Female Gothic - have garnered five-star reviews and continue to tour across the UK and internationally.

 - A Room of One’s Own is at Middlesbrough Theatre on Wednesday, September 13.

 Tickets are £16.20 including £1.20 booking fee.

 Book via www.middlesbroughtheatre.co.uk or call 01642 81 51 81.

  • If you are interested in ideas, radio is way more pure than television. You’re not distracted by somebody’s nose or hair or posture. You can really see how someone thinks and penetrate to the essence of who that person is. – Terry Gross
