Shadwell Opera Double Bill
T665570599
Award winning Shadwell Opera present Janacek's dramatic song cycle
Diary of One Who Disappeared, alongside the newly commissioned piece for five voices and piano
The Grief of Antigone based on Sophocles' Oedipus at Colonus, by composer Edward Nesbit.
Diary of One Who Disappeared transposes Janacek's countryside story of a farmer's 'infatuation' with a 'gypsy' girl into a complex contemporary tale. The double bill will form a startling exploration of themes of travel, exile and place.
