A nostalgic, slow-burn baroque night.
Silk St, Barbican, London EC2Y 8DS, UK
Haunting visuals, bittersweet music and the voice combine in this intimate theatrical meditation on the consolations of sorrow inspired by Robert Burton’s 17th-century study of depression. Created by director Netia Jones, the production features Iestyn Davies’s crystalline countertenor voice accompanied by atmospheric visuals and the ravishing music of Tudor composer John Dowland. Returning to the stage following its 2022 world premiere, Emma Doherty directs this revival performed in the round in The Pit theatre, offering an endlessly tender take on human emotion.
