Michael Grandage directs, reuniting him with Corrin, following their recent collaboration on the Amazon feature film My Policeman.

Born in the reign of Elizabeth I, the hero-heroine of Orlando journeys through five centuries and a myriad of encounters in search of the answer to one question: How do we find the courage to truly be ourselves?

Corrin returns to the stage following their Olivier-nominated performance in Anna X. The actor played Lady Diana Spencer in The Crown, winning a Golden Globe and Critics Choice Award, as well as receiving a SAG and Emmy nomination. They star in the films My Policeman and Lady Chatterley’s Lover and the limited series Retreat.

The production also has set and costume design by Peter McKintosh, lighting design by Howard Hudson, sound design and compositions by Alex Baranowski, movement by Ben Wright, associate direction by Anna Girvan, and casting by Jacob Sparrow.

MGC and Sand and Snow Entertainment produce.
