Andrea De Rosa returns to collaborate with playwright Fabrizio Sinisi, bringing to the stage Orlando, a show inspired by Virginia Woolf's character, who is able to travel through space and time thanks to the power of imagination and literature, addressing the fundamental theme of identity.

On 9 October 1927, Virginia Woolf wrote a letter to her beloved Vita Sackville-West: “Suppose Orlando turned out to be Vita and it was all about you and the lust of your flesh and the seduction of your mind... would it bother you? Say yes or no”. Vita did not shy away, agreeing to become the subject, muse, model and interlocutor of one of the most original novels in modern literature. The writing of Orlando thus began: as a tribute of love, an act of joy offered to a woman and to the world.
Continuously intersecting with the writer's life, in an enigmatic intertwining of work and biography, the story of Orlando – born a man in the 16th century, who lived for more than four hundred years and mysteriously transitioned into a woman – is transformed in this show into a hymn to ecstasy but also to the obsession with literature: a long, extraordinary love letter in the form of a novel.
On stage is Anna Della Rosa, recent winner of the Duse Prize, the prestigious award dedicated to the best theatre actress of the 2023/24 season, and of the 2024 National Association of Theatre Critics Award.
