Against Oblivion, Part 2 – Regular Music II – Thurs 30 & Fri 31 July 7pm


Teatro-Wensday-28-March-2007-n2-0571-200x3001Director/Music: Jeremy Peyton Jones.

Words: David Gale.

What do we think when we look back on our lives? What is the mark we have left? Why are some obsessed with fame and celebrity? Are our lives empty or full? Three singers from very different vocal traditions (church choral, soul/gospel and contemporary) consider their own life stories and try to make sense of their legacies. An extraordinary theatrical sound collage follows.

Devised in collaboration with the performers David Knight, Melanie Pappenheim and Brenda Rattray, pianist Yeu-Meng Chan, electric guitarist Steve Smith and rock/improvising drummer Charles Hayward whose high-energy experimental drumming with electronics provides an “intoxicating mix of percussive attack, swirling electronics and lyrical fragment collage.” Along with sound designer Jeremy Cox, all bring their own contribution to the eclectic mix
