Description

London, 1905. The city is alight with change and the Stephen siblings are at the forefront. Vanessa, Virginia, Thoby and Adrian are leaving behind their childhood home and taking a house in the leafy heart of avant-garde Bloomsbury. There they bring together a circle of brilliant, artistic friends who will come to be known as the legendary Bloomsbury Group. At the centre of the charmed circle are the devoted, gifted sisters: Vanessa, the painter and Virginia, the writer. But each member of the group will go on to earn fame and success. Together, this sparkling coterie of artists and intellectuals throw away convention and embrace the wild freedom of being in London.
