Wayne McGregor’s award-winning ballet triptych is inspired by the writings of Virginia Woolf, with an original score by Max Richter.

Virginia Woolf defied narrative conventions to depict a heightened, startling and poignant reality. Woolf Works re-creates the emotions, themes and fluid style of three of her novels: Mrs Dalloway, Orlando and The Waves. Inspired by her novels, letters, essays and diaries, Wayne McGregor’s ballet triptych moves away from traditional narrative structure, capturing the spirit of Woolf’s writing and delighting audiences with its stunning choreography and luminous original score by Max Richter. Woolf Works was created for The Royal Ballet in 2015 and won the Olivier Award for Best New Dance Production and a Critics’ Circle National Dance Award.
