A bewitching reimagining of Virginia Woolf's masterpiece in a sauna. Woolf's exquisite story refracted through dance, heat, scent, sound and light for a truly immersive experience that feels like falling in love on a summer afternoon. Here in our magical sauna theatre actors meet Aufguss – a sauna ritual which circulates steam and scent though beautiful towel waving choreography. Experience Woolf's dazzling words infused in a warm breeze of gently caressing heat, waves conjured by water on hot rocks hissing steam, and the transcendent scents of essential oils. Theatre like you've never felt it before.
