Icarus at the Edge of Time

Icarus at the Edge of TimeT0342198031
Film, music and science collide in this classic myth set in outer space. Icarus at the Edge of Time is a futuristic reimagining of the classic Greek myth set in outer space, about a boy who challenges the awesome power of a black hole and discovers the devastating reality of Einstein's theories. These two family-friendly performances bring to life Brian Greene's stunning book for children. The performance features a cutting-edge film by Al + Al, and a brand new score by Philip Glass performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra and conducted by Marin Alsop. Narrated by actor David Morrissey, who has starred in Doctor Who!
