Wit is the kind of theatrical experience of which legends are made.
Wit is a heartbreakingly funny play about a distinguished English professor who learns that intellectual brilliance is not as important as simple human kindness. American actress Kathleen Chalfant recreates her unforgettable, award-winning performance as Vivian Bearing Ph.D., a professor specializing in the holy sonnets of John Donne, struggling with her own mortality. A rare and wondrous theatrical event, Wit comes to London s Vaudeville Theatre for a special limited engagement.
