[Vwoolf] The Waves in quarantine

[Anne Fernald]

Dear Woolfians,

One of my students in my Center for Fiction class on Woolf just shared with
me that the Berkeley Rep is doing a free online show based on *The Waves*, The

In kitchens and on couches, at beaches and on rooftops, *The Waves in
Quarantine* invites an audience into the creative process. As Virginia
Woolf ingeniously excavated the inner lives of six friends in her
groundbreaking novel, Lisa Peterson and her collaborators (including
four-time Tony Award nominee and star of *Law & Order: SVU*, Raúl Esparza)
create a film in six movements that meditates on themes from the musical
adaptation of Virginia Woolf’s masterpiece *The Waves*.

*The Waves in Quarantine* builds upon Woolf’s gorgeous prose to reveal an
intimate look at where art meets isolation, creating something entirely new
in the process. This theatrical experience for the screen gifts us with
many of the things we’ve been missing in the past year: music in unexpected
places, the intimacy of strangers, metaphor in the ordinary. Through a
combination of dazzling choral music, text from the novel itself, exquisite
visual imagery, and access behind the scenes as these artists imagine,
question, explore, and experiment, *The Waves in Quarantine* juxtaposes the
majestic with the everyday to forge a truly unique work of
interdisciplinary art, made of and for this moment.

Please note: *The Waves in Quarantine* includes open captions.
