PERFORMANCE EDITION
by Querida Funck and Virginia Woolf
"A woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction." - Virginia Woolf
A Room And A Voice: Performance Edition reimagines Virginia Woolf's landmark essay A Room of One's Own as a work for the stage, classroom, and voice. Adapted by Querida Funck, this edition blends Woolf's timeless words with new commentary, historical context, and performance notes designed for actors, educators, and storytellers.
Part literary adaptation and part rehearsal guide, this Performance Edition includes:
Historical and literary context to frame Woolf's vision
Story and character arcs for performance reading
Actor and voice techniques for bringing the text to life
Bonus excerpts from Woolf's essays that deepen the conversation
Ideal for readers' theatre, classroom study, and solo performance, this edition celebrates Woolf's call for creative freedom while offering practical tools for performance.
Querida Funck, playwright, stage director, and voice artist, brings fresh insight to Woolf's exploration of women, writing, and voice-making this a unique resource for students, teachers, performers, and literature lovers alike.

Whether it’s a children’s book that sparks imagination, a memoir that preserves lived experience, or a theatrical work that finds new life on stage or in voice, our mission is rooted in honoring story as legacy. Everything we do is connected by a belief in the power of storytelling to preserve memory, deepen empathy, and give voice to what matters. We don’t aim to publish everything. We aim to publish what endures.
