Virginia Woolf and the Theater demonstrates that drama, theater and performance formed a continuous subtext in Virginia Woolf's art and in her life, thus providing new insight into the dramatic and even theatrical quality of her fiction. Also, drawing on published and unpublished diaries, letters, essays, and other documents, this book allows readers to witness Victorian, Edwardian, and mid-twentieth century British theater through Woolf's eyes.
