  "og:description": "1931. Virginia Woolf delivers a withering critique of patriarchy and reveals 
    with a timeless honesty, her powerful yet troubled mind. She dips deep 
    into her own stream of consciousness from The Waves, Orlando and To the 
    Lighthouse and her polemic essay, A Room of One's Own. Woolf's clarity on 
    women when 'writing one's mind', champions writers from our past to 
    inspire the voices of our future. Directed by Fringe First winner 
    Margarett Perry, Lucy Stevens returns to the drawing room after her sold 
    out five-star run Off-Broadway."
