“Unfinished Dialogues” is the name of the “theater dance piece,” which, according to choreographer and director Lynne Taylor-Corbett, is “a loving portrait” of Woolf’s final day of life, March 28, 1941. Amy Miller, a GroundWorks dancer, will portray Woolf writing and interacting with colleagues on the last day of her life.
”I think in those days, with no access to any kind of help or any options, she was hearing voices,” Taylor-Corbett told the Akron Beacon Journal. “I have taken the liberty of saying she was hearing her characters talk to her and her younger self.”
The performance at the Ice/Coal Factory Complex in Akron, Ohio’s Northside district, kicks off the fall season for the GroundWorks Dancetheater. The complex is located at 129 Summit St.
The Woolf work will be on stage Sept. 12 – 14 and Sept. 19-21. Friday and Saturday shows are at 8 p.m., and Sunday matinees are at 2 p.m. Ticket prices are $18, general admission; $12 for students and seniors. Call 216-691-3180, Ext. 4.
