Orlando

Virginia Woolf

Judith Jungk stages Virginia Woolf's "Orlando" at the emma-theater as a play with music. Sascha Maria Icks performs solo through Orlando's four centuries and gender change, accompanied live by Jan-Sebastian Weichsel with well-known pop songs. Critics praise Icks and the entertaining pace, but partly miss the depth of the source novel.
