Following an explosive run at the Edinburgh Festival 2025, Emily Woof visits South Street with her acclaimed show REVOLVER.
★★★★ The Guardian
Inspired by the legendary Beatles album released in 1966, REVOLVER weaves together the lives of three women across generations in a shattering story of love, obsession and violence.
In 2026, a TV researcher has her dream job; in 1966, a teenage Beatles fan writes to John Lennon; and in New York, Valerie Solanas tries to get her script produced by Andy Warhol as his celebrity star is on the rise.
Told in Woof’s compelling, rich and wryly funny voice, REVOLVER brings to vivid life a time of revolutionary change and protest. As The Beatles tour to America for the first time, John Lennon declares the band is as popular as Jesus, and everything shifts from liberated swing to drug-induced chaos, as people’s minds expand with pacifism and radical feminism….
