Vice/Dichterliebe/A Fountain Sealed
T0
Vice - A jazz opera based upon The Revenger's Tragedy, by Cyril Tourneur. It translates into music the sardonic humour and savage irony of the original play, in which the precious moments of life on earth, meant to be used to secure salvation for eternity, are rioted in an orgy of lust, greed, and bloody revenge. Written by Jools Scott and Directed by Sue Curtis.
Dichterliebe - One of the most dramatic and moving song cycles ever written. A young poet falls madly in love with a girl, but she eventually marries someone else. The poet recounts every phase of his "amour fou": initial tenderness and bliss, then bitter disillusionment, rage, obsession, estrangement and eventual acceptance. Composed by Schumann, poetry by Heine.
A Fountain Sealed - A young Anglican priest finds his faith, ministry and relationships undermined over his sympathy for a couple who are pursuing a relationship that the church cannot accept. By Nathan Williamson, Thomas Walton and James Methven.
