• ... that Alessandra Ferri originated the lead role in the 2015 ballet Woolf Works at age 52? Source: "But anyone (guilty!) who thought Ms. Ferri, now 52, would be declaiming dramatically in a long robe à la Anne Bancroft in “The Turning Point,” was mistaken." ()
  • ALT1:... that the three acts of the 2015 ballet Woolf Works were inspired by Virginia Woolf's Mrs Dalloway, Orlando: A Biography and The Waves respectively? Source: "Woolf Works makes no attempt to be a consistent “story ballet”. Each of its acts takes off from a separate novel – Mrs Dalloway, Orlando and The Waves – and each riffs on the style of Woolf’s writing in very different ways." ()
  • ALT2:... that Gillian Anderson provided a voice-over reading of Virginia Woolf's suicide note for the contemporary ballet Woolf Works?Source: "“Tuesday,” the third section of the ballet, opens with a recording of Woolf’s suicide note (read with limpid simplicity by Gillian Anderson)."()

• New Enough, not yet Long Enough - has 1,300 characters, needs 1,500 (according to Wikipedia:Prosesize). As for Hook Alt 2 might read better if "a voice-over of reading of". Bogger (talk) 14:29, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

• Bogger, you might've missed the videography section at the bottom, there should be roughly 1600 characters, excluding cast list and award table, I had moved it to above the casts section. Corachow (talk) 14:33, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

Noted, Long Enough, and both hooks now good enough. ALT-2, probably more interesting. Bogger (talk) 14:48, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

I personally far prefer the hook. The voice-over is only three minutes of the whole show. Corachow (talk) 15:01, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

no strong preference for hook Bogger (talk) 15:51, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
