Production details
Composer and pianist, Dmytro Morykit, returns to Wilton's to celebrate the 10th anniversary of his first performance of Metropolis in this historic venue where he received a full-house standing ovation. Morykit's incredible piano concert complements Fritz Lang's iconic film, which is continually voted amongst the top ten films of all time. Set in a futuristic urban dystopia, the son of the city's mastermind dares to fall in love with a working-class prophet who predicts the coming of a saviour. The live score brings the film to a modern audience within the magic of Wilton's unrivalled atmosphere, Morykit says
"it's like playing a piano inside a cello".
