About this listen

Between the Acts is Virginia Woolf’s final novel, set in a quiet English village just before World War II. The story unfolds over the course of one day, as villagers prepare for and perform an outdoor pageant that reflects the history of England. Beneath the surface of this seemingly simple event, tensions rise—between family members, within relationships, and in the looming shadow of war.

Through shifting perspectives and poetic language, Woolf explores themes of time, identity, art, and the fragile continuity of culture.
